Democratic Rep. Esty says she won't seek re-election after abuse claims against ex-staffer

Rep. Elizabeth Esty, D-Conn., announced Monday that she would not seek re-election this November amid accusations that she failed to protect her female staffers from a former chief of staff accused of harassment and abuse.

Esty had come under pressure to resign after reports by The Connecticut Post and The Washington Post revealed that Esty allowed her then-chief of staff, Tony Baker, to remain on the job in despite knowledge of allegations that he physically harmed and threatened to “kill” another staffer.
