Now They Have to Pay the Harassment Settlements Themselves



December 15, 2018


In “Not Right Now, I’ve Got a Headache” (Dec. 5, 2017) I noted that Congress had a fund, paid for by taxpayers, to settle sexual harassment cases against members.


Well, rest easy.

A bill has been passed by both the House and the Senate that will require offenders to pay the settlements themselves. The settlements must also be disclosed publicly.


So, check that off your “Things to Be Aggravated About” list.
