Sexual Harassment and the Pension Bill Repugs

Maybe if they concentrated on what their constituents want instead of on which ass they're going to grab next, they could get some work done.

From the Herald:

Kentucky lawmakers still have “a lot of work to do” on Gov. Matt Bevin’s proposal to overhaul the state’s ailing public pension systems, House Speaker Jeff Hoover said Tuesday after meeting for nearly two hours behind closed doors with his Republican colleagues in the state House.

“It’s clear we got a lot of work to do to move forward on this issue,” said Hoover, R-Jamestown.

He said no vote was taken on the bill during the GOP caucus meeting and that he does not know if a special legislative session to approve pension legislation is likely to be held in the next two weeks.
That would be this Jeff Hoover:
Kentucky House Speaker Jeff Hoover has reached a confidential settlement over sexual harassment allegations by a woman who works on his legislative staff, according to sources with direct knowledge of the matter who spoke with Courier Journal.

Hoover, the leader of the powerful Republican majority in the House of Representatives, reached the agreement last week after receiving a demand letter from the woman’s lawyer over allegations that date to 2016, the sources said, speaking under the condition they remain unnamed because they fear reprisal if identified.
Y'all think it's tough keeping up with the non-stop shenanigans by the Orange Menace, you should try keeping pace with Kentucky's repug majority and Governor Why Won't These Guys Do What I Want.
