What a wonderful use of taxpayer money.......to pay off staffers to keep them from filing sexual harrassment suits against those creepy SOB's in the House and Senate.
Quote:
Taxpayers have paid out nearly $1 million per year in settlements to congressional employees who have been harassed or otherwise treated badly by their political bosses over the past 14 years, according to records from the Office of Compliance.
The payouts stem from hundreds of complaints from employees, some of whom may have been sexually harassed or treated so poorly that third-party mediators were brought in to negotiate cash payoffs to settle the cases.
Makes you sick to think WE have to make the payoffs to these victims and not the perps in order to protect them.
