Doesn't sound like he asked anyone to do anything. He and his wife have 3 month old twins this way, and he was discussing it as another option for people who can't conceive. A little more detail at this link..https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2017/12/08/world/politics-diplomacy-world/conservative-arizona-rep-trent-franks-staunch-abortion-foe-resigning-amid-ethics-probe/#.Win2UUqnG70 …
Republican Rep. Trent Franks to resign after asking female staffers to be a surrogate for his child. What the hell is wrong with these people?http://politi.co/2jr7AnZ

Thanks for providing this. Still not seeing anywhere reporting that he *asked* co-workers to be surrogates
-
I don't think he did. He was discussing the topic with them and they felt uncomfortable. Need more info to know, but it sounds more like poor judgment than anything sinister..
-
Yes I agree. If he was discussing his um...role in surrogacy (if that's how they did it) I could see it being inappropriate. But discussing it in general isn't anything to be ashamed of.
-
I honestly never considered what his...umm.. role.. might have been. I assume they used a medical turkey baster or something.. Don't think his wife would like the other option...
-
No no not what i meant lol. I meant if they took his sperm and his wife's eggs or if they used a 3rd party embryo (sometimes one half doesn't have what they need to have biological)

Can you link to the part that says that he asked them to be a surrogate? I'm just seeing that he discussed it in front of them?

This is not sexual misconduct or a threat of any kind. Why should he be forced to resign. Yea a little weird maybe.

Wasn’t there some govt official who once asked an intern to be a humidor for his cigars? His name is right on the tip of my tongue...
