House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer has followed Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, in saying that he believes women accusing Democratic Representative John Conyers of harassment and verbal abuse. While Conyers has stepped down as ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, he has not resigned from his seat. A BuzzFeed report detailed a private settlement between the 88-year-old congressman and a female staffer. Another woman came forward alleging Conyers sexually harassed her on multiple occasions.
