This page includes noteworthy individuals in the federal government, state and local governments, and party organizations accused of engaging in or facilitating sexual assault or harassment from 2019 to 2020.

We classify sexual assault and harassment using the definitions provided by the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. This page includes persons accused of assault or harassment who had criminal charges, civil suits, or professional complaints filed against them and individuals who did not have formal action taken against them.

Starting in October 2017, the #MeToo movement led to an increase in the number of women bringing forth allegations of sexual harassment and assault. #MeToo was sparked by allegations against Hollywood film producer Harvey Weinstein. See this page for more on #MeToo and responses by the federal government and state governments.

If you know of any allegations from 2019 to 2020 that should be posted here, please email editor@ballotpedia.org.
