How is it the it is ok for the House Democrat caucus to send a Governor’s office staffer out in tears. Wasn’t a senior House Democrat legislator recently punished for this type of behavior?

The football/suburban paradise also known as Rochester has some issues for sure.

@Henry It’s definitely not okay. But Speaker Welch has never done anything to care for his own staff so why would he care about other offices’ staff?

There have been several cases of legislator misbehavior where the staff gets the talking to instead of the legislator.
