STATEHOUSE (NETWORK INDIANA) — More accusations of sexual harassment have come to light against now former State Senate minority leader Greg Taylor (D-Indianapolis).
The IndyStar reported on Wednesday that three more women, on top of the three women who came forward in late November, have accused Taylor of sexually harassing them as well as other inappropriate conduct.
“I’m denying everything that has been alleged that I have not talked to my caucus about,” Taylor said in a media availability on Wednesday at the Indiana Statehouse.
“I didn’t do the things people are saying that I’ve done,” he added. “I don’t know who these people are. I don’t know who what they’re talking about.”
Some of the accusations include unwanted touching and advances and even following an intern into a bathroom and kissing her at a downtown bar. Taylor boasted about his record in his time as a state senator while taking question after question from reporters about the claims.
“I’ve been able to hire three women to be leaders in our caucus,” Taylor said. “I’ve also emphasized the importance of workplace safety.”
Taylor comments came before he was removed by Statehouse Democrats as Senate Minority leader and the party’s caucus chairman. Both titles were then given to State Sen. Shelli Yoder (D-Bloomington).
“Yoder brings a wealth of experience and a passion for advocacy, particularly in reproductive rights, educational access, and health care equity,” Democrats said in a press release.
Yoder will be joined by Sen. Andrea Hunley who will act as assistant minority leader, Sen. Rodney Pol Jr. as caucus chair, Sen. La Keisha Jackson as assistant caucus chair, and Sen. J.D. Ford as caucus whip.

Democrats have all sorts of passion except to SECURE RIGHTS. Securing rights is the prime duty of all elected officials. Democrats are all about SPECIAL rights for certain dem voting groups rather than rights all enjoy because they are human.
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,”
Of course dems are completely unfamiliar with out founding documents and the ethos of this country. They are all about their personal and group power. Hoosiers should NEVER vote for another democrat for any office. Even though the all pledge on sacred oath to follow the law and the Constitution of the US and the State, they fail mere seconds after taking their hand from the holy book on which they swore their pledge. RINOs are only slightly better.
Frankly, I am done with them. I’m done with them robbing me of my hard earned money to only to give it to others that did not earn their own only to have their malfeasance subsidized using my money.
I’m sure this guy, whom already has (pretty much) admitted to the prior accusations, will still continue to be voted in to other positions….because this is par for the course for the “Moral High Ground” Democrats…
Nobody, if they are all their mentally, should ever vote for a Democrat as they have shown over the last several years how much scum they really are. Yes, I am making a generalizing statement, as I am correct more often than not. Prove me wrong…
