Sexual harassment allegations
[edit]In November of 2024, the Indianapolis Star published a story outlining three separate sexual harassment allegations spanning over eight years.[3] A legislative assistant claimed Taylor placed his hands on her and pinned her against a door, another legislative staffer alleged verbal sexual harassment, and an intern claimed Taylor continuously pursed her looking for a personal relationship.[3] Taylor did not deny the allegations rather apologizing and saying he "may have blurred the lines". On the same day of the allegations, Indiana Senate democrats re-elected him as Minority Leader.[4]
