Staffers in the office of Rep. Ruben Kihuen (D., Nev.) are shooting out resumes to other Democratic offices on Capitol Hill with the understanding their boss might be in trouble following a sexual harassment allegation.So long Ruben, we hardly knew ye.
Kihuen’s chief of staff, Peter Koltak, sent out an email to other Democratic offices in Congress with the resumes of most of the office's staff, Politico reports.
"I’m hoping to place them all here pretty quickly in other offices," Koltak's email said. "If you have openings or you hear of any, I would appreciate your help making those connections. I’m happy to talk with anyone at any time about each person. I would highly recommend any of them."
Democratic leaders, including House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), have called for Kihuen's resignation in the wake of a sexual harassment harassment from a 2016 campaign staffer.
