Congress Paid $17 Million in Settlements w/TAX MONEY, but "Let's Try to Impeach Trump For it."
Odd how The Outraged have FORGOTTEN THIS, HUH?
How many of the "Outraged Left" used tax dollars to PAY OFF THEIR ACCUSERS?
NONE From the CURRENT CONGRESS.
In the Fake News/Lying Left desperate attempt to "Create a Crime" out of an imaginary "Campaign Finance" offense , we notice THIS GETS ZERO ATTENTION....and they used OUR MONEY to DO IT:
Congress paid out $17 million in settlements. Here's why we know so little about that money.
(CNN) — Two things have become painfully clear on Capitol Hill this week: Lawmakers and staffers say sexual harassment is "rampant" -- but even members of Congress have no idea just how widespread the problem is.
The controversial and sensitive issue has taken center stage in Congress this week, with female lawmakers making fresh allegations of sexual harassment against unnamed members who are currently in office, and the unveiling of a new bill on Wednesday to change how sexual harassment complaints are reported and resolved. On Thursday, a woman shared her story of being groped and kissed without her consent by Sen. Al Franken in 2006.
CNN has also learned that during the current Congress, no settlement payment approval requests have been made to the congressional committee charged with approving them.
According to a report from the Office of Compliance, more than $17 million has been paid out in settlements over a period of 20 years -- 1997 to 2017.
