$17 MILLION IN CONGRESSIONAL HUSH MONEY SPARKS MASSIE’S CALL FOR ACCOUNTABILITY



Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) has called on Congress to disclose which members
forced taxpayers to cover the $17 million in settlements paid between 1997 and
2017. These payments, made through the Congressional Office of Compliance, were
used to resolve complaints of sexual harassment, racial discrimination, and
other misconduct.

Massie has been vocal about the need for accountability, pointing out that
President Donald Trump was scrutinized for using his own funds to settle legal
matters. He questioned why members of Congress have been allowed to keep their
misconduct hidden while forcing taxpayers to foot the bill.



The fund was created under the 1995 Congressional Accountability Act, but the
details of the settlements remain unclear. The reporting process has been
criticized for its lack of transparency, leaving the public in the dark about
which members of Congress were involved.



Massie has argued that Congress should no longer be able to hide behind these
settlements, especially since the money comes from taxpayers. He called for a
full release of the details, saying that Americans deserve to know how their
money was used.



This push for transparency comes amid growing frustration with the lack of
accountability in Washington. Massie’s call for action has gained support, as
lawmakers from both parties face increasing pressure to reveal the truth behind
these settlements.
