Norton today sent a letter with 58 female Members of Congress to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee (OGR) urging the committee to investigate numerous sexual misconduct allegations against President Trump. Norton introduced a bill to subject Congress and its agencies to the same comprehensive civil rights laws and federal health and safety standards that currently apply to executive branch and private sector employers. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
