Sacramento - A year ago, the #MeToo movement went viral.
First came the naming, shaming and ousting of powerful men accused of sexual misconduct. Then came awareness of the prevalence of such misconduct, and of the intricate methods — the threats, the legally enforced silence — used to keep victims from speaking out.
But, to date, the expulsions and outrage have not coalesced into anything resembling a successful federal policy agenda — to, you know, keep such problems from happening again.
In fact, over the past year, Congress has done (almost) nothing to address the systemic problems that lead to workplace sexual misconduct.
