Nancy Mace airs confidential settlements for sexual harassment paid by the House of Representatives
The pressure exerted by Nancy Mace made the Congressional Labor Rights Office handover documents of representatives indicating sexual harassment
Nancy Mace, aspiring governor of South Carolina, made known the existence of documentation related to payments of $300,000 corresponding to confidence agreements encials for sexual harassment reached between 2004 and 2017, which were covered by the House of Representatives, this because the offenders were several of its former members.
Through a pair of messages published on the X platform, formerly known as Twitter, the Republican who aspires to represent her party in the elections of her homestate, exhibited how their conduct s improper actions of at least six former legislators required to establish agreements to avoid civil trials where the sexual harassment to which they resorted at their time abusing the political office held came to light.
The most controversial of the issue is that $338,000 dollars paid with taxpayer funds are mentioned.
It should be noted that the Oversight Committee of the House of Representatives was responsible for keeping safe all information related to representatives of both parties who allegedly enjoyed sexually harassing their victims.
All of them escaped the public scandal and the majority ended up resigning from their seats in Congress, even some are already dead, but none was tried for the crime they allegedly committed.
Although the conciliation agreements do not imply that the accused admit having committed any irregularity, the fact of having resigned from their positions doesn't make logic.
With the objective of knowing the politicians for whom thousands of dollars were disbursed to free them from accusations linked to sexual harassment, Nancy Mace published a list where half a dozen names of representatives involved appear.
Eric Massa, Democrat of New York; John Conyers, Democrat of Michigan; Blake Farenthold, Republican of Texas; Patrick Meehan Republican of Pen Silvania, Rodney Alexander, Republican of Louisiana; and the office of the missing Carolyn McCarthy, Democrat of New York,is also mentioned.
“Nine members. Thousand pages. All records before 2004 were destroyed, which says everything about how long this issue has remained hidden,” the aspiring governor said.
