Source: (Washington Examiner) Katie Hill resigns from Congress after leaked naked photo and alleged affairs with male and female aides
I think to call her a 'rising star' in the party, could be seen as accurate. She used a knocking-on-doors grassroots campaign to flip a GOP district against Trump, and was one of quite a few freshmen representatives that gave the Speaker's gavel to Nancy Pelosi. These women are widely perceived as representing the future of the party, and representing the new future of America progressing through the new millennium. As such, I think this is a big blow to the party.
Would I have resigned? Likely not, unless I was trying to protect my family. I wouldn't refute my sex life. It's nobody's business but mine. But Rep Hill is making a personal decision that only she can make for herself, so I'll respect it. But such a loss.
Preying on staffers is not a good look for any Congressman.
