Massachusetts political leaders are reviewing their sexual harassment policies, following reporting from The Boston Globe about a rampant culture of sexism and harassment at the State House.

One woman who's experienced that harassment has agreed to speak with us. She says she has been sexually harassed by three different lawmakers.

We have agreed to grant her anonymity, because she still meets with lawmakers regularly at the State House, and is concerned about possible retribution.
