I met with a grad school classmate of mine Monday. She had been a staffer on the Hill (House).
Recently they had a spat of sexual harrassment issues. Those issues are reported to the House Compiance office, where the office sits on them unless there are repeat offenses OR someone pursues more action.
I found this very interesting, considering the pressure members of Congress are putting on the military to enhance a "culture" that allows sexual harrassments and assaults.... all while the Congressional process is FAR more lax.
"But LITS, it doesn't happen much on the Hill, right?"
Um, I think we would all be surprised with an investigation into how sexual harrassment and assaults are handled on the Hill, especially in cases involving staff and members.
Amazing.
