Maryland Senate Passes Sexual Harassment Complaints Bill

ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) — The Maryland Senate unanimously passed a measure Friday that would change how the General Assembly handles sexual harassment complaints.
Sexual harassment and discrimination complaints made to the legislature’s ethics committee would be referred to an independent investigator, unless the person who filed the complaint doesn’t want that to happen.
The bill also would prohibit lobbyists from sexually harassing legislators, interns and pages, among others.
