The revelations about sexual misconduct on Capitol Hill keep coming, but there are signs we’ve barely scratched the surface.
In recent weeks, talk radio host Leeann Tweeden (http://time.com/5028391/al-franken-statement/) accused Democratic Sen. Al Franken of Minnesota of forcibly kissing her during a rehearsal for a sketch on a USO tour, then a second woman (http://time.com/5031492/al-franken-was-just-accused-of-inappropriate-touching-by-a-second-woman/) said he improperly touched her during a photo. (Franken has apologized and said he remembers the incidents differently.)
Six women (http://time.com/5019182/george-hw-bush-groping-allegation/) came forward to say that former President George H.W. Bush groped (http://time.com/4996794/george-h-w-bush-heather-lind/) them. (Through a spokesman, Bush apologized.)
BuzzFeed reported (https://www.buzzfeed.com/paulmcleod/she-complained-that-a-powerful-congressman-harassed-her?utm_term=.es83X5WmZ6#.ptj8xGoDRb) that long-serving Democratic Rep. John Conyers of Michigan settled a sexual harassment claim for $27,000, paid from his office budget in a manner that has raised eyebrows. (Conyers denied wrongdoing.)
