Baltimore Del. Curt Anderson stripped of leadership, ordered to undergo training over harassment allegations


Maryland House Speaker Michael E. Busch stripped Del. Curt Anderson of his legislative leadership posts Friday after an ethics committee ordered the Baltimore Democrat to undergo sexual harassment training following the completion of its investigation into multiple allegations against him.

Busch’s action came two days after Anderson, a Baltimore Democrat, appeared before the Joint Committee on Legislative Ethics to answer allegations of misbehavior from female lawmakers and staffers.

The panel decided unanimously that Anderson must undergo “one-on-one intensive” sexual harassment awareness and prevention training, Busch said in a statement.

In a brief interview, Anderson, 68, said he believed the actions by the committee and Busch were “fair” but said any further remarks would have to come from the speaker’s office.
