Rep. Patrick Meehan no longer plans to seek re-election after reports emerged that he used taxpayer dollars to settle a sexual harassment claim from a former staffer, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Background: Meehan says he thought of the aide as "a soul mate," and that was "struggling to make sure that I would never put that into our professional relationship." She says he became "hostile" after she rejected his advances.
