Hundreds of former Capitol Hill staffers will call on congressional leaders to require mandatory sexual harassment training for members of Congress as reports of inappropriate and aggressive behavior circulate in political circles around the country. 

Nearly 400 former Capitol Hill staffers are demanding that sexual harassment training be mandatory for all members of Congress and their staff. In a letter to congressional leaders, the former staffers write that they “believe that Congress’s policies for preventing sexual harassment and adjudicating complaints of harassment are inadequate and need reform.”

Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) on Tuesday proposed new bipartisan legislation to immediately require sexual harassment training for senators as well as aides and update the training to better reflect the experiences of victims.
