Top Union Executive in Fight for $15 Resigns After Complaints of Misconduct With Staff
2017-10-24
The latest Progressive moral panic is having some interesting victims. They've really shot themslves in the foot with this one.
[FREEBEACON] One of the top labor figures in the Fight for $15 minimum wage campaign on Monday resigned from his senior position at the Service Employees International Union amid complaints about his sexual conduct toward staffers.

Scott Courtney's resignation as executive vice president of the SEIU and a member of the union comes a week after SEIU President Mary Kay Henry suspended him based on preliminary information from an internal investigation.

SEIU spokesperson Sahar Wali issued a statement on the resignation, quoting Henry's previous comments on the matter.

"There is no place in our organization for conduct that violates our Code of Ethics," Henry said. "Such conduct does not reflect who we are or represent the values that guide the important work we do every day for working people, our families, and communities."

"The internal investigation will continue and President Henry has taken additional steps to ensure that, across our union, all staff are respected, their contributions are valued, and their voices are heard," Wali said.

Guess they never read about Pandora's box. You demand perfection of others, you better be perfect yourself. Oops. A couple thousand years of history and human nature hasn't changed.
