A House Democrat introduced a measure Tuesday calling on Congress to
establish an official congressional probe into allegations that
President Trump harassed women in the decades before he won office.
The resolution, should it reach the House floor, could force Republicans to have to vote either for or against a probe.
“At a pivotal time, when the nation should be able to a president for moral leadership, we must look elsewhere,” said Rep. Gregory W. Meeks, the New York Democrat who introduced the measure.
He said the investigation could either be through an existing committee or through a special investigative panel convened specifically for the purposes of a probe.
“When women share personal accounts of sexism and violence towards them, we should listen rather than summarily dismiss their concerns,” he said.
