On the recordMay 10, 1996
in what has been called a desperate distraction of men uncomfortable with women in the workplace, two Democrat male Members of Congress verbally assulted two female congressional aides yesterday in a committee hearing. What was the reason for these attacks--the women happen to be married to prominent public officials. This sort of Neanderthal-like mentality that would cause a Member of Congress to stoop to such a low level as attacking hardworking staff members on such sexist grounds has absolutely no place in this institution. Not only is this an insult to the female staffers in Congress, it is an insult to working women all across america. Mr. Speaker, I call on my Democrat colleagues, Mr. Moran and Mr. Kanjorski, to publicly apoloize to the women they attacked.
