Pelosi: No concerns over handling of Massa case

WASHINGTON — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says she has no concerns about the Democratic leadership’s handling of sexual misconduct allegations against former Rep. Eric Massa.

A House ethics panel is investigating whether any lawmakers or staff covered up Massa’s alleged conduct with male subordinates. Massa resigned last month.

Pelosi told a news conference Thursday she had “no concerns whatsoever” about the leadership’s actions and promised to make herself available for an interview with investigators. Massa is a Democrat and he was a member of the party’s House caucus.
