Report: 2 Women Say Wisconsin Lawmaker Kissed Them Without Consent

Two women have accused a state lawmaker of kissing them without their consent, according to a report from The Capital Times.

The paper reported Friday that Rep. Josh Zepnick, D-Milwaukee, made the unwanted physical advances at political events in 2011 and 2015. The women chose to remain anonymous in the report. Both said they didn’t file a formal complaint after the incidents, according to the paper.

Zepnick told The Capital Times, “No legislative staffer ever confronted me with any such allegation nor did their employer.”

Zepnick’s office did not immediately return a request for comment from WPR.
