In January, Becker denied the allegations against him. “I categorically deny these allegations of improper and unprofessional conduct.”
He wrote that the alleged assault on the final night of the 2016 Democratic National Convention was “at odds with my recollection of a late evening filled with many hugs and kisses and tears and conversations about what’s next.”
The woman, whose account was corroborated by three other people who either witnessed the encounter or were told about it soon after, said in January that “[c]andidates who allow people like Robert Becker to lead their organizations shouldn't earn the highest office in our government.” The woman was granted anonymity because she feared retaliation from supporters of Sanders and Becker, who has a loyal following of his own. “You can’t run for president of the United States unless you acknowledge that every campaign demands a safe work environment for every employee and volunteer,” she said.Williamson spokeswoman Patricia Ewing provided a statement on the hiring after this story posted.
“Robert Becker is a talented organizer who has worked in politics for decades. We take the accusations from 4 years ago seriously. After many hours of candid conversation with Robert and numerous people who have worked both with him and on opposing sides, we believe the opportunity for professional redemption is appropriate. Providing all staff and volunteers with a safe and positive working environment is a top priority.
