Rather than sponsoring a bill I'd like to see her press for an investigation into how the fund got established in the first place and name everyone who has used it and why.

What does this have to do with Good zol boy vulture?

Nothing.

Al Franken and Harvey Weinstein aren’t good ol boys.

And now, phase 2. Various women try to seize power wherever they see an opportunity.

All this is about is turning everything that women do not like, into crimes.

That is what it is all about.

Crimes require evidence, not heresay.

The Congressional Accountability and Hush Fund Elimination Act, of which I am a co-sponsor, explicitly prohibits the future use of tax dollars to pay settlements in these cases. It publicly exposes perpetrators and requires them to reimburse taxpayers with interest for the funds they have used to settle claims.

Not sure why any FReeper would have a problem with this. We SHOULD know what the heck is going on; WE'RE paying for it.

One member always seemed to manage to get on the elevator with me, and proceed to back up until I was against the wall and he was pressed against me. I learned fairly quickly to cross my arms with my elbows out so they dug into his back. Another member rarely called me by name and addressed me only as "Nurse Goodbody.” It was objectifying, disrespectful and highly inappropriate for any work setting.

First response (elbows)- to the elevator incidents: Appropriate! (I would have been more-vocal, saying "Don't crowd me!")

Second response (?) - to the name-calling: Inadequate! (I would have employed some equally demeaning epithet in addressing him.)

Case closed - no further adjudication necessary.

Regards,

You have an overly elevated opinion of yourself. This Congresswoman is trying to help drain the swamp. I support her in her efforts.

Exactly. Diane Black is conveniently conflating disparate topics.
