Chuck Edwards: “I think we need to--as the military often does, lessons learned and apply that.”

Mr. Speaker, regret is not an admission of sexual harassment.

The factual findings of this investigation do not justify branding me as though I did.

I can acknowledge poor judgment, regret the discomfort that some of my actions may have caused, and apologize to those who were hurt by this episode, while still disputing a conclusion that the evidence simply does not support.

I am imperfect. I have made mistakes, but I do not believe I committed sexual harassment.
