Welcome back to the 59th Episode of the ModState Podcast.
This week news was leaked that several lawmakers on Capitol Hill used tax payer money, from a slush fund, to pay those who they sexual harassed.
Your tax money to a tune of 100k (and probably more) was used to finalize suits against John Conyers and Blake Fartenhold. This 1995 law allows for complete confidentiality of both the victim and the accused, but in turn any compensation was paid for by the American tax payer.
It is time to hold all those who knew about this accountable and start working towards some real change in Washington DC.
Thanks for tuning in and listening.
