Sen. Richard Durbin said Sunday that fellow Democratic Sen. Al Franken has acted responsibly in his reaction to allegations of sexual assault by several women.
“Al Franken has acknowledged what he has done is wrong,” Mr. Durbin, Illinois Democrat, told CNN, noting that Mr. Franken has submitted his case to the ethics committee. “Let’s have a hearing and an investigation. Let’s let this reach whatever conclusion this is going to reach.”
At least four women have accused Mr. Franken of sexual assault, and the Minnesota Democrat has apologized for his actions.
