Summary
The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) is facing criticism after Rep. Rashida Tlaib accused the organization of failing to properly address past sexual harassment allegations. Tlaib said she was harassed while working for the group early in her career and that the organization did not take adequate action. Former board member Dr. Ed Hasan also filed a formal complaint and was subsequently removed from his position. The organization has apologized for any harm caused and maintains a “zero-tolerance policy for harassment.”
