Not good enough.
Via Free Beacon:
Rep. Elizabeth Esty (D., Conn.) announced on Monday her retirement from Congress in the wake of revelations that she kept a senior staffer employed for three months after learning he sexually harassed and threatened to kill another co-worker.
Esty’s decision comes only hours after calling for the House Ethics Committee to open an investigation into her handling of allegations made against a former chief of staff, Tony Baker.
“I went into public service to fight for equality, justice, and fairness.,” Esty wrote on her Facebook page. “It is one of the greatest honors of my life that the people of Connecticut’s Fifth District elected me to represent them in Congress. However, I have determined that it is in the best interest of my constituents and my family to end my time in Congress at the end of this year and not seek re-election.”
