There’s a little-known fund that goes to victims of sexual harassment on the Hill. You pay for it. -- The fund that settles sexual harassment cases in the legislative branch is unlimited and funded by taxpayers.
Since 1997, Congress has paidat least $15 millionto settle complaints about sexual harassment, racial discrimination, and violations of the Americans With Disabilities Act under the umbrella of theCongressional Accountability Act (CAA) of 1995.
There is literally a Congressional fund for this. Let a lefty rag tell you about it:

LOL CAA... meaning they have ZERO accountability.
I think there was a House Rules change regarding this during the 116th Congress? Maybe my memory is off on this.
