   A Republican state lawmaker says she was subjected to sexual   
   harassment and pressured to engage in a “quid-pro-quo” arrangement   
   via text message by longtime state Rep. Brad Witt, D-Clatskanie.   
      
   State Rep. Vikki Breese Iverson, R-Prineville, outlined those   
   allegations Monday in a letter sent to House Speaker Tina Kotek, a   
   Democrat. Breese Iverson has asked that Kotek remove Witt from each   
   of the three legislative committees she and he both serve on.   
      
   “The fact Representative Witt chose to sexually harass me leaves us   
   no room for any future ability to have real discussions regarding   
   committee business or other House Floor business,” Breese Iverson   
   wrote. “The quid-pro-quo he texted me is an inexcusable abuse of his   
   power. Experiencing this sexual harassment is something I should not   
   have to be exposed to or accept as a course of business, especially   
   in today’s Capitol culture.”
