Late last year, allegations of sexual harassment rocked Oregon’s Legislature and led one state Senator to resign.
Now, there’s a fresh batch of controversy. On Wednesday, state Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian filed a complaint against legislative leaders in his own party. He says they’ve permitted a generally hostile environment, and haven’t correctly addressed widespread sexual harassment.
In this week's episode of "OPB Politics Now," OPB reporters Dirk Vanderhart, Amelia Templeton and Jeff Mapes explain Avakian's complaint — and its political implications.
