I will not comment on hearsay regarding Rep. Ernest Hewett. I am appalled however that Rep. Hewett has stated, in his own words, that he will not work with a female intern. He admits that, "that may sound sexist..." and he is right. More than sexist, it is offensive to half the population. A Connecticut state representative who can't work with a female intern? That is absolutely unacceptable. Grow up or go home Rep. Hewett.
