Multiple U.S. Senators are Calling for Sen. Al Franken to Resign After another woman came forward on Wednesday to accuse Sen. Al Franken of sexual harassment, at least six U.S. Senators have openly called for Franken to resign. "I believe it would be better for our country if he sent a clear message that any kind of mistreatment of women in our society isn’t acceptable by stepping aside to let someone else serve." "We can only create a culture where women are respected as equals if we all step forward and be part of the change by holding everyone, especially our leaders, accountable." The news comes after 'TIME' named "The Silence Breakers" as the Person of the Year on Wednesday.
