Flashback: Waters Called Conyers a Man of 'Impeccable Integrity' on Women's Issues

Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters (Calif.) praised her Democratic colleague, Rep. John Conyers (Mich.), in late October for being supportive of women for many years, but multiple former staffers alleged in a report on Monday that he had made unwanted sexual advances on his female staffers.

Waters addressed about 4,000 women at the Women's Convention in Detroit last month, where she praised Conyers for his commitment to women over the course of many years.

"You know, there is a member of Congress who has been supportive of women for many, many, years," Waters said. "He is quiet. He is confident. He is powerful, but he has impeccable integrity on all of our issues. Give John Conyers a big round of applause."
