Rep. Katie Hill (D-CA) apologized for her “imperfections” in a video statement, just a day after she announced her resignation amid allegations that she violated House rules by conducting a sexual relationship with a congressional staffer.

Hill promised that she would will fight “revenge porn” after websites published nude photos of her.

And she suggested that she will not disappear from public life and will “get right back up in the saddle.”

Robin Abcarian: “I really wish U.S. Rep. Katie Hill had not resigned.”

“The Antelope Valley freshman Democrat has been charged with no crime, is going through what appears to be a miserable divorce, has always been frank about her bisexuality, had a relationship with a member of her campaign staff, but has denied an accusation that she had an affair with a male congressional staffer when she got to Washington, D.C., earlier this year. She is now the subject of a House ethics probe.”

“Should we have expected more from her? Yes, and I will get to that in a moment. But she has done nothing — that we know of at least — that should have led her to step down.”

“If indeed she had a sexual relationship with a staffer in her congressional office, that should have earned a slap on the wrist for the 32-year-old Democrat. To show how seriously Congress takes that sort of thing, it wasn’t even until last year that the House changed its rules to prohibit relationships between members and their employees. For decades, male lawmakers got away with those sort of shenanigans. Wouldn’t you know it, the first one to fall afoul of the rule is a woman, and a bisexual woman, at that.”

Freshman Rep. Katie Hill (D-CA) is resigning from Congress after facing allegations of inappropriate sexual relationships with staffers in her office and on her congressional campaign, Politico reports.

She’s set to resign by the end of the week.

Freshman Rep. Katie Hill (D-CA) is denying allegations that she had an improper relationship with a congressional staffer, and blamed the controversy on an “abusive husband” that she is the midst of divorcing, Politico reports.

Said Hill: “The fact is I am going through a divorce from an abusive husband who seems determined to try to humiliate me.”

Red State recently published intimate photographs and text messages that show Hill was involved in a long-term sexual relationship with a female campaign staffer.

Freshman Rep. Katie Hill (D-CA) was interviewed by Caroline Kitchener of The Lily:

KITCHENER: Is the House of Representatives still a sexist place?

HILL: It’s very archaic. The other day, I had a member who said something that was just so dumb. He said it as a joke, but it was a sexual comment. And I was just like, “You can’t say those kinds of things anymore.”

KITCHENER: What did he say?

HILL: We were talking about one-minute speeches on the floor. And I called him “Mr. One Minute” or “One Minute Man,” or something. I didn’t even think about it that way, but he was like, “I can also be Mr. Five Minute Man or Mr. Whatever Minute Man You Want.” It was in front of people, and the rest of us were all looking at each other. One of my young colleagues said, “Well, that took a turn.”
