A Democratic representative from Delaware County was accused of sexual misconduct Wednesday by a lobbyist from one of the state’s top unions.

Rep. Mike Zabel (D., Delaware) allegedly sexually harassed Andi Perez, a lobbyist for Service Employees International Union 32BJ in 2019, Perez told Spotlight PA. She previously shared her experience, without naming Zabel, at a listening tour event organized by then-House Speaker Mark Rozzi (D., Berks).

Zabel is accused of acting inappropriately toward at least three of his female colleagues, according to Perez and two other reports. And the House Ethics Committee will now look into the allegations against him.

House Republicans quickly called for Zabel to resign, describing him as a “serial predator” whose behavior was known by Democratic leaders. Perez, the lobbyist, also called for his resignation. So far, House Democrats have not asked their colleague to step down.

Zabel caressed her leg while talking to her about issues. The ex-staffer says he ran his hand down her back apparently after having too much to drink. The third woman appears to be a rw'er, 'nuff said.
