CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE MUST BE A GREAT PLACE TO WORK

By Bob Walsh

 


The legislature of the formerly great state of California employs a lot of people.  There are 120 elected legislators and each has a chief of staff.  There is a special committee of the legislature that does nothing but look into complaints made against elected legislators and their high ranking staffers by employees.  This committee looks into all sort of things, including complaints of sexual harassment, retaliation and sexual assault.  In the last four years there have been a total of 391 such complaints made.  A total of zero of these complaints have been substantiated by the committee.  

Interestingly enough the results of these complaints, including the names of those involved, are exempt from the public records act.  

Nothing to see here.  Move along.
