We have all been inspired by the courage of the American gymnasts coming forward to tell their stories. The crimes committed against these young women are atrocious and rattle us all to the core.

The fact that these crimes went unreported to law enforcement is intolerable—and it’s a huge wake-up call.

That’s why next week, the House will continue its work to protect our children from the heinous crime of sexual abuse with legislation that makes major reforms to our nation’s amateur athletic governing bodies.

Perhaps you should review the list of women who complained about trump’s sexual harassment.........

Well they were children. Almost 200. So it’s important also. But you are right after children they need to look at their own behavior.

It would be vastly more meaningful if you'd handle the backlog of sexual abuse cases you have before your own ethics committee. You're just promising big solutions to problems you don't want to address in your own house...sad. #SpeakerLipService

You're a fraud. Your party leader is a sexual predator.

Why is your party so confused about the difference between "young women" and "children"? I'm not sure how much Moore clearly this can be explained to you.

Your silence on trump's litany of abuse was deafening and indefensible. You'll find that silence may be the best policy going forward.

That’s great Paul .... what about all the victims of gun violence? They would like you to pass gun legislation that would protect our school kids, our babies and our adults. Please start by returning your campaign contributions to the NRA.

Your rich owners will approve. Just retire, leave now. Mueller can find ya later. I'm sure your family would love to spend 24/7 with you. We're sick of you, and you're non working white social security paying through college lifestyle. You're not rich, you're just their dog. You accepted that position because you're too fearful to fight your way through a good life.
