I came here to give a voice to the unheard in the halls of power,” she said. “I wanted to show young people, queer people, working people, imperfect people that they belong here because this is the people's house. I fell short of that and I'm sorry. To every young person who saw themselves and their dreams reflected in me, I'm sorry.
Hill decided to resign from her seat on Sunday , after right wing media orchestrated a revenge porn attack against her by posting her personal photos without her consent.The House Ethics Committee has been investigating her alleged relationship with a staffer who worked on her congressional campaign, since sexual relationships between members and their aides is against House rules.
Hill claims that her ex-husband helped right-wing media publish the revenge porn; her ex-husband’s parents say his computer was hacked,“I am leaving because of the thousands of vile threatening emails, calls, and texts that made me fear for my life and the lives of the people that I care about. Today is the first time that I’ve left my apartment since the photos, taken without my consent, were released. And I’m scared.
