Representatives Baca and Woolsey Join Lofgren in Failing to Second Mike Honda’s Call for USA Swimming Sex Abuse Hearings

Last week Congresswoman Lynn Woolsey did not comment when asked to react to the news that Mike Honda, her fellow California Democrat in the House of Representatives, was exploring hearings to investigate the sex abuse scandals in USA Swimming.

You now can add two more representatives of California Congressional districts who have failed to respond to Concussion Inc.’s inquiries on this subject: Joe Baca and Lynn Woolsey. Both Baca and Woolsey are members of Honda’s Anti-Bullying Caucus.

Honda’s office told us on September 28 that he “has begun looking into what formal action our office can take to address this problem, including, but not limited to, Congressional hearings. At this point, Congressman Honda is very concerned about the issue, but our specific course of action is still being determined.”
