Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee has quite the reputation on the Hill, and frankly it is not good. She is being sued by a former staffer who says the Congresswoman did not acknowledge or make any allowances for the staffer’s disability. Earlier this year The Daily Caller wrote a scathing article on the congresswoman http://dailycaller.com/2011/03/02/congressional-bosses-from-hell-sheila-jackson-lee/. So one has to wonder is Jackson Lee a horrible boss or is everyone simply picking on her?

Working in Washington is hard work but according to the story attached working for Congresswoman Sheila Jackson-Lee is impossible. Jackson-Lee is accused of giving her staffers profane nicknames and also reserving some of her more horrific behavior for her black staffers. The story I reference is from the Daily Caller, a conservative website. Our elected officials are supposedly there to serve us, but who really oversees their behavior. What recourse does a staffer have other than to quit? Sadly, they really don’t because as Jackson-Lee says she is the queen and no one can cross the queen and keep their job.
