On Tuesday, actress and activist Alyssa Milano appeared on CNN with host Chris Cuomo and proceeded to declaim that if Congresswoman Katie Hill, who resigned from Congress after allegations of sexual impropriety with a staffer had been lodged against her, were a man, “this would be a very different outcome.”

Milano focused on the three-way affair that Hill had with her husband and another woman, rather than the substantive issue, that Hill had allegedly had sexual relations with a staffer, a kind of relationship which Congress has expressly condemned. The Daily Wire has reported, “the House of Representatives prohibited lawmakers from having sexual relationships with members of their staffs and campaigns in response to the #MeToo movement.” Hill has admitted that she had relations with a subordinate but said it was not a staffer; radio host Joe Messina reported on his Monday program “The Real Side,” that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi demanded Hill’s resignation after learning that staffers in Hill’s office confirmed her affair with Legislative Director Graham Kelly.
