Representative Thomas Massie, a Republican from Kentucky, secured a 420-0 vote on Tuesday, effectively signalling that the House of Representatives is ready to confront the long-standing secrecy that has historically clouded its internal disciplinary matters. This decisive move serves as an admission that previous methods of handling workplace complaints have severely damaged public trust in the institution.
