Congressman French Hill (AR-02) issued the following statement after voting for and cosponsoring legislation to require Members of Congress and staff to complete sexual harassment training each session of each Congress: “Sexual harassment in the workplace is unacceptable and will not be tolerated. Before this legislation was introduced, my office staff and I had completed the House’s sexual harassment training. I expect more entities - businesses, institutions, and offices – to follow suit and put in strong accountability measures to make workplaces free from inappropriate behavior. Today, the House declared that we are taking sexual harassment seriously and that there is no place for misconduct in Congress. I look forward to additional recommendations on what other steps can be taken by House Administration.” |
