Rep.
Kat Cammack (R-FL) told MeidasTouch on Wednesday that she “wouldn’t feel comfortable” with her daughter working on Capitol Hill due to a “culture of creepiness.”
PabloReports: Tell us about this effort to prevent members from dating staffers.
Cammack: If you’re looking for love, I suggest you look elsewhere.
Maybe join—I don’t know—what are the dating apps these days?
eHarmony?
Match?
Grindr?
Tinder?
“Listen, if you’re looking for love, I suggest you look elsewhere,” she told Manríquez.

I’m not quite sure, but I think we’d be better off if members were more focused on their work than enhancing their love life.”
When asked if she’s heard complaints about “sexual misconduct by members against staffers,” the congresswoman responded with a laugh, “I’m trying to think of another way to say eff-yeah without using that word, but yeah, it’s a really big effing problem.
I think that it’s ridiculous that people don’t recognize the power imbalance that exists here on Capitol Hill, and it’s extraordinarily inappropriate if you are the member and you are trying to put the moves on your own staff.”
Cammack continued, “Listen, I don’t want the government involved in people’s love lives, but what we have seen is, like I said, a culture of creepiness where you have members that are soliciting staff, they’re approaching staff, they’re putting them in very awkward situations, and that’s just wrong.
And so, I wouldn’t feel comfortable sending my daughter to work here on Capitol Hill, and until I feel like that is changed, we’re gonna keep going to try to figure out ways to make Capitol Hill a safe place to work.”
“So, you would tell parents not to send their kids to work up here?”
Manríquez clarified.
“Not in this environment, no,” said Cammack decidedly.
