Congressional Sex Fund

$15 Million Dollars has been paid to accusers.

A virtual flood of accusations have surfaced in the last few weeks

Now we learn that taxpayer dollars have been used to silence accusers.  Members of Congress who have been the subjects of sexual harassment claims have settled claims with tax dollars from the “Sex Slush Fund”.  This special fund is operated by the Treasury Department.  The Congressional Office of Compliance is responsible for negotiating settlement in these cases.  After the negotiating is complete, payment is made.  The fund has been in existence for about 20 years, with NO MEMBER doing anything to disclose it or end it.

The OOC is also responsible for discrimination complaints, but they have not provided information disclosing how much of the $15 Million has been paid to sexual harassment claims vs discrimination.

Apparently, this isn’t exclusively a club for Democrats.  Members of both parties have relied on this fund to settle their claims.  As long as you are a member of the Congressional Club, this fund is available to silence your accusers.

BUT… we should not worry.  Congress has a solution to the problem.  While there is no mention of eliminating this slush fund, Rep. Paul Ryan plans to require all Members of Congress and their staff to complete sexual harassment training.  No mention of how much that will cost.

Wouldn’t it be easier just to hold sexual predators accountable?  We should assume (hope) that most Members of Congress are not sexual perverts.  Why then, should the majority who are non-offenders be subjected to required “sex education” classes?  Because it is the way Congress solves (?) problems.

Just taking care of the people’s business.

    Sad isn’t it? And if the truth is known there are probably other slush funds that we don’t know about that would make this one look small.
