Pay raises for #ThemToo?
House Democrats on Wednesday shot down a Republican proposal to block federal employees disciplined for sexual misconduct from receiving the same pay rise as other federal workers.
Republicans proposed exempting federal workers disciplined for sexual misconduct from a bill sponsored by Democrats that would give the 2.6 percent pay rise to all federal employees.
“During calendar year 2019, no increase in pay as authorized under this Act may be provided to any Federal employee who has been disciplined for sexual misconduct under chapter 75 of title 5, United States Code, or any other provision of law,” the GOP proposal text read.
But most of the Democrats rejected the suggestion, with only 17 Dems defying the party and voting in favor of the GOP plan.
Progressive Democrats such as Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib, and Ilhan Omar – while making #MeToo a campaign issue – voted against the proposal.

More wasted time and gotcha politics. Why add additional red tape. There are already penalties for sexual misconduct.
Why are they still employees?
They all need to be fired.
Pound them too
What?
