A former aide to Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee alleges she was raped by a Congressional Black Caucus Foundation staffer in October 2015.
The staffer says she was fired once the congresswoman learned she planned to sue the Foundation, which Jackson Lee chairs.
The aide is suing Jackson Lee in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.
A former aide to Democratic Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas filed a civil suit against the lawmaker and the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation (CBCF), alleging she was fired for threatening legal action against the Foundation relating to a sexual assault.
The complaint alleges Jackson Lee and the CBCF intentionally inflicted emotional distress, unlawfully interfered with contract, and violated the Congressional Accountability Act and Washington, D.C.s human rights statute. It is the second time in recent years a former employee sued the congresswoman for her infamous employment practices.
The lawsuit was filed Jan. 11 in Washingtons federal trial court and names both Jackson Lees office and the Foundation as defendants. The plaintiff, referred to in court filings as Jane Doe, is seeking damages.
Neither Jackson Lee nor the CBCF responded to requests for comment.

Young ladies, don’t get drunk with men. Don’t go back to their apartments with them and drink more and smoke weed. Just don’t.
If you decide you do want to have sex with a man, then do it sober.
I consider myself a feminist of sorts (sexually conservative, pro-life) and I consider myself to be looking after my daughters when I give them the above advice, only for them it’s “when you’re married.”
I’m not even from Texas, but if I had the money, I’d pay to travel there & be on that jury if I could. Purely as a disinterested citizen of course.
I’d pay to be a Jurist and I moved from Texas 6+ years ago.
Anything to bring that B!TCH to Justice and Remove it from (see My Tagline).
Locally at a major univeristy, everybody and their brother has been fired and prosecuted for inappropriate sexual misconduct. It has almost become an industry in itself.
Yet, these scum politicians continue to walk away.
