Conyers Faces More Accusers

2017-12-06 1


Late Monday night new allegations against Rep. John Conyers emerged. In an affidavit released by a lawyer, a former staffer is accusing the congressman of sexual harassment. Conyers is the longest serving member of Congress. He is facing calls from lawmakers, including House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, to resign following previous allegations of misconduct. In the document released by lawyer Lisa Bloom, former staffer Elisa Grubbs said she worked in Conyers’ office from approximately 2001 to 2013. She claimed that the congressman "inappropriately touched" her during her time there.
