[QUOTE][QUOTE]The longest-serving member of the US Congress has "expressly and vehemently" denied allegations that he sexually harassed staff members.
But John Conyers, a Michigan Democrat, appeared to confirm the payment of a settlement to one of his accusers.
A staff member claimed she was fired for refusing to "succumb to sexual advances" by the 88-year-old.
The House Ethics Committee launched an investigation into the prominent civil rights activist.
Mr Conyers first joined Congress in 1965 and is a member of the powerful House Judiciary Committee.
It was reported on Tuesday that he had paid $27,000 (£20,000) in exchange for the confidentiality of a former staff member who claims she was fired for refusing sex.

ANOTHER ONE: Second Woman Accused John Conyers Of Sexually Harassing Her
Another former staffer for Michigan Democratic Rep. John Conyers formally accused him of consistently sexual harassing her while she worked for him, according to a new report.
The former staffer said Conyers subjected her to unwanted touching on a daily basis, BuzzFeed reported, while Conyers’ wife called the staffer a “whore” and accused her of wanting an affair with the congressman. The staffer filed suit in February but dropped it after the judge denied her request to seal the complaint, according to BuzzFeed.
The newly public accusation comes the day after it was revealed that Conyers settled with another accuser in 2015 for more than $27,000 after he allegedly fired her for refusing his sexual advances.

He's up to 8. Or is that Rose? ANyway, the Dems have called for an investigation. When was the last time one of those found any wrongdoing?
The irony about all of the investigations the Dems are demanding from the Senate Ethics committee is...."THEY WILL BE INVESTIGATING THEMSELVES."
Like letting the Foxes guard the Henhouse???? Nobody in the Senate will have anything done to them. Too many CROOKS spoiled the Stew a long time ago, from both parties.

FLASHBACK=> Maxine Waters To Women’s Convention: John Conyers ‘Has Impeccable Integrity On Our Issues’
Amid sexual harassment allegations against Rep. John Conyers, footage has resurfaced showing Rep. Maxine Waters praising the embattled lawmaker for his ‘impeccable integrity’ on women’s issues in October.
(video at site)
“You know, there is a member of Congress who has been supportive of women for many, many, many years,” Waters told the crowd at the Women’s Convention Sojourner Truth Luncheon in Detroit on October 28th.
“He is quiet, he is confident, he is powerful, but he has impeccable integrity on all of our issues. Give John Conyers a big round of applause!”
During the address, Waters called on women to ‘reclaim their time,’ in the Trump-era.
Whatever that means.
The footage has resurfaced amid reports that Conyers used taxpayer money to fly women into D.C. to meet with him in hotel rooms.
