Conyers | 2017-12-05 | 2017 | 2017-12 | Democrat | House | VA | Robert Scott | S000185 | bobbyscott.house.gov | legacy | WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Bobby Scott (VA-03) issued the following statement after Congressman John Conyers, Jr. (MI-13) announced he would be retiring from Congress: “As Dean of the House and founding member of the Congressional Black Caucus, John Conyers has served in Congress for more than fifty years and shaped some of the most consequential legislation of the last half century. However, the tremendous impact of someone’s legacy does not excuse credible allegations of harassment or discrimination. Last week, the House of Representatives unanimously voted to mandate sexual harassment and discrimination training for Members and staff. That is a good first step, but Congress must ensure greater transparency and accountability for the Office of Compliance. As we continue this important national discussion about sexual harassment, we must ensure that everyone is held accountable for credible allegations.” # # # | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
