    I join my colleagues in calling for Senator Franken to step aside and resign. Sexual harassment is unacceptable, completely inappropriate and cannot be tolerated.

        We must support a culture in our workplaces and our entire nation where individuals can come forward, without judgment or reprisal, if they have been subject to inappropriate behavior.

        No ethics investigation. If Franken doesn't get the courtesy of an investigation then trump shouldn't either. Enough of the double standards.

        Well, you and your colleagues are wrong. I don't want Sen. Franken to step down until the ethics committee has finished its work & he's been proven guilty. You are not doing yourselves any favors depriving a pro-woman colleague of due process.

        I join America in saying that Donald Trump should resign. When will he answer for the 16 women he sexually assaulted? Franken should stay until trump is held accountable. Can't have it both ways. No more double standards.

        Okay, but what happens when Moore gets elected (very likely)? And what about the grabber in chief? Both accused of far more serious allegations. THEY won't resign if called upon to do so. How do we deal with that double standard?

        Ed, unless you are also demanding Donald's resignation, this is highly suspect. There are many more allegations against him. He's in a position to cause much more damage than a senator. Take action immediately or you will lose supporters.

        I think all of his allegations and even his inappropriate support of rape culture and inappropriate sexual behavior should force him to resign.

        Democrats are acting like abused spouses. I'm fine with them demanding that Franken resign, but if they're not loudly calling for Trump's resignation as well... screw them.

        They may have been, but definitely not with the volume necessary. So frustrated with Dem leadership today. This is the time for resolute action. It doesn't require them to be in majority.

        The Dems do need to evolve. I'd like Polosi and Schumer to step down and let's start putting in fresh faces into leading the party. I'm more independent, but heavily Dem leaning. I vote over 75% liberal leaning. The Dems get stubborn in rotating..it's holding them back.
