(Wednesday, Nov. 29, 2017) — U.S. Rep. Luke Messer (IN-06) today voted in favor of a bipartisan House Resolution requiring all House members and staff to complete mandatory anti-harassment training during each session of Congress. Messer spoke on the House floor in favor of the resolution and urged Congress to do more to stop sexual harassment. “The House resolution today is a step in the right direction, but it’s clear more must be done.” Messer said on the House floor. “We must stop taxpayer dollars from being used to settle sexual harassment claims against members of Congress and victims should be released from non-disclosure agreements that prevent them from coming forward and telling their story.” Messer recently announced plans to introduce legislation to ensure victims of sexual assault and harassment aren’t silenced by non-disclosure agreements, and prohibit taxpayer dollars from being used to settle sexual harassment claims with members of Congress. VIDEO of Messer speaking on the floor in support of the resolution and his legislation can be found below and HERE. f t # e | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
