Rep. Anna Paulina Luna blasted Congress in a fiery speech, accusing lawmakers of protecting their own instead of holding members accountable.

“I think it’s really disgusting how this institution protects itself,” Luna said, claiming that a member of Congress allegedly sexually harassed a woman who later set herself on fire, and that lawmakers moved to shield him rather than pursue accountability.

Her remarks come amid ongoing debate in Washington about transparency and misconduct investigations inside Congress, with critics arguing the institution often handles allegations internally and quietly.

Luna’s comments have reignited calls for greater oversight and public disclosure when misconduct accusations involve sitting members of Congress.
