On the recordDecember 4, 2017
This Congress, with a unanimous voice vote, passed a resolution that mandates antisexual harassment training for Members and staff. Of course, it is about time. But here is the thing, Mr. Speaker: it is pitiful and embarrassing that a Member of Congress would need an instruction manual that tells them that they must keep their pants on in their office. What we need is to create an environment of a safe and respectful workplace and policies and procedures that will allow victims to come forward to be fully compensated, for Members to be held accountable, and to have fair due process. ____________________
