House and Senate negotiators have struck a deal over?long-stalled legislation?to revamp the way sexual harassment complaints are made and handled on Capitol Hill, multiple congressional sources close to the process told CNN on Wednesday, likely assuring the bill's final passage this year.The bill will reconcile the House- and Senate-passed versions into one bill that overhauls the Congressional Accountability Act, which set up and oversees how sexual harassment claims are handled and -- for the first time -- will hold lawmakers liable for paying harassment settlements from their own pockets, rather than using US taxpayer money as had been done in the past.The breakthrough comes more than a year since the #metoo wave hit Capitol Hill and just in the nick of time. Had Congress been unable to reach agreement before the end of the year, each chamber's legislation that passed earlier in the year would have expired.The House passed its version in February. The Senate wrote its own bill, a vastly different version, in May and legislators have been working for the past seven months, in fits and starts, to compromise over the details.The final bill text has not been released yet and a formal announcement is forthcoming. Depending on how things pan out with the whole slate of must-pass items left on Congress' docket, the sexual harassment legislation could be attached to the spending bill or the Violence Against Women's Act extension or could be passed by unanimous consent on the floor.Whether lawmakers would be personally liable for paying harassment settlements had been a sticking point as the legislation?sat for months without a solution. A provision in the Senate's bill for members being to be held personally responsible said, unlike the House bill, that they must pay out of pocket only for sexual harassment, not for any awards that may be ordered for sex discrimination or any other kind of discrimination.Some had feared that could provide a loophole for members who are accused of harassment to settle with a victim for sex discrimination, knowing they won't be required to pay the settlement and it will instead come out of a US Treasury fund. 2186

If you watch the Republican National Convention this week, you will hear claims from Republicans that Joe Biden, if elected, would hurt suburban living. So what are Republicans talking about? THE POLICYRepublicans are talking about the Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Rule, which President Barack Obama and Biden updated in 2015. Biden has signaled he'd support even further updating of the rule. The rule basically says that if a town takes federal money, they should examine whether they engage in housing discrimination. Nothing is mandated, but it generally encourages an examination of whether zoning laws encourage developers to build large, family homes as opposed to more affordable options like an apartment or a condo. Trump disagrees with that policy and is against the rule. BATTLE FOR THE SUBURBSThe issue is being brought up by Republicans because for them, the election will be decided by the suburbs. Cities will generally vote for Biden, rural America will vote for Trump. How large suburbs vote will determine who is in the White House. Kim Stewart is an undecided voter living in a suburban community an hour outside of Washington D.C. "I love having the space, having a yard," Stewart said, talking about why she and her husband moved to the suburbs. When asked what she thought of more apartments being built in suburbs like hers, Stewart, admitted she didn't like it. "It would make me feel a little uncomfortable. We enjoy the quiet," Stewart said. THE OTHER SIDEThe Biden campaign says what Trump is saying about Joe Biden and the suburbs is a smear campaign, contending the rule is not "abolishing the suburbs" as Trump has said. There is also another side. Shantai High is a resident in a D.C. low income housing community. She's lived in her apartment for nearly 19 years. She says everyone in a low income housing would like more affordable options, in cities and in suburbs. "It’s tough everywhere. Affordable housing is needed, we are discriminated against," High said. 2014

How about using your phone or computer to empower women? That's what one app and website are hoping you'll do when you dine out, for women's history month.From the hostess stand to the kitchen, there isn't a part of Racine's, an American-style food  restaurant in Denver, Lee Goodfriend doesn't know. That's because she owns it."It feels fantastic," Goodfriend says. "I love my restaurant I love being a woman entrepreneur."Goodfriend has seen things change drastically during her decades in the business."When I started out in the restaurant business in 1971 there were virtually no women in the restaurant business that owned the restaurants," Goodfriend says. "Except maybe with their husbands."Not anymore. And now all restaurants in the country that are owned or co-owned by a woman, or have kitchens run by a women are being highlighted in a new way. Grubhub partnered with Women Chefs &?Restaurateurs to launch RestaurantHER. You put in your zip code and it shows you all the women led businesses in your area."I highly recommend it," Goodfriend says.Goodfriend says it's not only good for people who want patronize women led restaurants, but be employed by them."If I were a young girl starting out I'd want to maybe work for a woman and see learn from her and then start my own restaurant," Goodfriend says.Still, only 20 percent of chefs in the US are women. Grubhub hopes the RestaurantHER initiative will raise awareness about gender equality in the industry.Goodfriend hopes it'll show other women what's possible."At my old age I like the idea of being a role model for other women so they can see that you can do it," Goodfriend says. "And that you can be in charge." 1705

If another stimulus package is approved, there is a possibility it would include a ,000 travel tax credit. It’s an effort to kickstart the hospitality industry.The tax credit would cover vacation-related expenses through 2021.Experts agree there needs to be a way to jumpstart the economy.It may not be the right time to travel, though.Right now, we are seeing a continuation of the first wave of the virus. A second wave of is expected between the end of the summer and early fall, models show.“It'll dip down and it'll come up again, a resurgence of the same strain,” said Dr. Jay Wolfson, a public health professor at the University of South Florida. “And then we also have reason to believe there will be a mutation of this virus that will occur at the same time in the late summer, early fall.”Dr. Anthony Fauci has said it is possible a vaccine would be available by the end of this year, but Wolfson says having a vaccine doesn't automatically make public places safe again.“It would take a good year or so if you're lucky, once you’ve got a vaccine produced, and a vaccine that's not going to have some adverse effects in a sector of the population,” said Wolfson.It's only been three months since much of Europe went through its peaks of coronavirus. Some countries just started reopening to tourists, but not to Americans yet. 1346
