I’ve been trying to work with anyone willing to work with me to pass meaningful reform. My bill, the Congressional Harassment Reform Act, would make sure lawmakers pay for their own harassment settlements—and it would fix our broken process for reporting harassment in Congress.

The more time that goes by without addressing this broken system, the more people suffer. Passing reform would show that Congress is finally taking this problem seriously—and in the Senate, members of both parties want to get this done. All we need is the chance to vote.

I often tell people that on a good day, Congress is still 20 years behind the rest of the country. It is in our power, right now, to make sexual harassment the exception to that rule. We’ve waited 100 days. Let’s not wait any longer.

I can't take seriously comments on any moral issue when it comes from someone who enables the slaughter of unborn babies, which Bio 101 says are undeniably human beings. Convert to the pro-life camp, madam. Then I'll take you seriously on everything else. Till then, no dice.
