Résumé

TLDRLa congresista de Nueva York pronunció un discurso en la Cámara de Representantes tras enfrentarse con el congresista Yoho en los escalones del Capitolio, donde este le lanzó insultos como "repugnante" y "peligrosa". Aunque no se sintió personalmente dañada por sus palabras debido a experiencias previas en trabajos de clase trabajadora y en el metro de Nueva York, la congresista hizo un llamado a la cultura permisiva que permite tal lenguaje abusivo hacia las mujeres.

    La congresista de Nueva York relata un incidente con el representante Yoho en los escalones del Capitolio. Yoho la confrontó y usó lenguaje ofensivo, llamándola 'asquerosa', 'loca', y 'peligrosa'. Al salir para hablar con periodistas, Yoho la llamó un término insultante. A medida que describe el incidente, destaca que tales comentarios no le afectan profundamente ya que ha enfrentado este tipo de lenguaje varias veces en su vida, especialmente como trabajadora en Nueva York. Sin embargo, señala que el problema es cultural y refleja una falta de impunidad y aceptación de lenguaje violento contra las mujeres, alimentada por estructuras de poder, y que el incidente no es un caso aislado sino parte de un patrón más amplio de deshumanización y violencia.

  • 00:00:28
    following an incident earlier this week
  • 00:00:31
    about two days ago
  • 00:00:33
    i was walking up the steps of the
  • 00:00:34
    capitol when representative yoho
  • 00:00:38
    suddenly turned a corner
  • 00:00:40
    and he was accompanied by representative
  • 00:00:42
    roger williams and accosted me on the
  • 00:00:45
    steps right here in front of our
  • 00:00:46
    nation's capital
  • 00:00:48
    i was minding my own business walking up
  • 00:00:51
    the steps
  • 00:00:52
    and
  • 00:00:53
    representative yoho put his finger in my
  • 00:00:56
    face he called me disgusting
  • 00:00:58
    he called me crazy he called me out of
  • 00:01:00
    my mind
  • 00:01:03
    and
  • 00:01:04
    he called me dangerous
  • 00:01:07
    and then he took a few more steps
  • 00:01:10
    and after i had
  • 00:01:13
    recognized his uh after i had recognized
  • 00:01:15
    his his comments as rude
  • 00:01:18
    he walked away and said i'm rude
  • 00:01:20
    you're calling me rude
  • 00:01:23
    i took a few steps ahead and i walked
  • 00:01:26
    inside and cast my vote
  • 00:01:28
    and because my constituents send me here
  • 00:01:30
    each and every day
  • 00:01:32
    to fight for them
  • 00:01:34
    and to make sure that they are able to
  • 00:01:36
    keep a roof over their head that they're
  • 00:01:38
    able to feed their families and that
  • 00:01:40
    they're able to carry their lives with
  • 00:01:41
    dignity
  • 00:01:43
    i walked back out and there were
  • 00:01:46
    reporters in the front of the capitol
  • 00:01:48
    and in front of reporters representative
  • 00:01:50
    yoho called me and i quote
  • 00:01:53
    a
  • 00:01:56
    these are the words that representative
  • 00:01:58
    yoho
  • 00:01:59
    levied
  • 00:02:00
    against a congresswoman
  • 00:02:03
    the congresswoman that not only
  • 00:02:04
    represents new york's 14th congressional
  • 00:02:06
    district but every congresswoman and
  • 00:02:08
    every woman in this country
  • 00:02:11
    because all of us have had to deal with
  • 00:02:13
    this in some form some way some shape at
  • 00:02:18
    some point in our lives
  • 00:02:20
    and i want to be clear that
  • 00:02:22
    representative yoho's comments
  • 00:02:24
    were not deeply hurtful
  • 00:02:27
    or piercing
  • 00:02:29
    to me
  • 00:02:30
    because i have worked
  • 00:02:32
    a working class job
  • 00:02:35
    i have weighted tables in restaurants i
  • 00:02:38
    have ridden the subway
  • 00:02:40
    i have walked the streets
  • 00:02:43
    in new york city
  • 00:02:44
    and this kind of language is not new
  • 00:02:48
    i have encountered
  • 00:02:50
    words uttered by mr yoho and men
  • 00:02:53
    uttering the same words as mr yoho
  • 00:02:56
    while i was being harassed in
  • 00:02:57
    restaurants
  • 00:02:59
    i have tossed men out of bars that have
  • 00:03:02
    used language like mr yoho's
  • 00:03:05
    and i have encountered this type of
  • 00:03:07
    harassment riding the subway in new york
  • 00:03:10
    city
  • 00:03:11
    this is not new
  • 00:03:13
    and that
  • 00:03:14
    is the problem
  • 00:03:16
    mr yoho was not alone
  • 00:03:18
    he was walking shoulder to shoulder with
  • 00:03:21
    representative roger williams
  • 00:03:23
    and that's when we start to see that
  • 00:03:25
    this issue
  • 00:03:27
    is not about one incident
  • 00:03:29
    it is cultural
  • 00:03:31
    it is a culture of lack of impunity of
  • 00:03:34
    accepting of violence and violent
  • 00:03:37
    language against women
  • 00:03:39
    an entire structure of power that
  • 00:03:42
    supports that
  • 00:03:43
    because not only have i been spoken to
  • 00:03:45
    disrespectfully
  • 00:03:47
    particularly by members of the
  • 00:03:48
    republican party and elected officials
  • 00:03:50
    in the republican party not just here
  • 00:03:54
    but the president of the united states
  • 00:03:56
    last year
  • 00:03:57
    told me to go home to another country
  • 00:04:01
    with the implication that i don't even
  • 00:04:03
    belong in america
  • 00:04:06
    the governor of florida governor
  • 00:04:08
    desantis before i even was sworn in
  • 00:04:11
    called me a whatever
  • 00:04:14
    that is
  • 00:04:16
    dehumanizing language
  • 00:04:18
    is not
  • 00:04:19
    new
  • 00:04:20
    and what we are seeing is that incidents
  • 00:04:22
    like these are happening in a pattern
  • 00:04:26
    this is a pattern
  • 00:04:28
    of of an attitude towards women and
  • 00:04:32
    dehumanization
  • 00:04:33
    of others
  • 00:04:35
    so while i was not deeply hurt or
  • 00:04:38
    offended
  • 00:04:39
    by little comments that are made
  • 00:04:42
    when i was reflecting on this
  • 00:04:46
    i i honestly thought that i was just
  • 00:04:48
    gonna pack it up and go home it's just
  • 00:04:51
    another day right
  • 00:04:54
    but then yesterday
  • 00:04:56
    representative yoho
  • 00:04:58
    decided to come to the floor
  • 00:05:01
    of the house of representatives
  • 00:05:04
    and make excuses for his behavior
  • 00:05:08
    and that i could not let go
  • 00:05:11
    i could not allow
  • 00:05:14
    my nieces
  • 00:05:15
    i could not allow the little girls that
  • 00:05:18
    i go home to i could not allow victims
  • 00:05:21
    of verbal abuse and worse to see that
  • 00:05:26
    to see that excuse
  • 00:05:29
    and to see our congress accept it as
  • 00:05:31
    legitimate
  • 00:05:33
    and accept it as an apology
  • 00:05:35
    and to accept silence as a form of
  • 00:05:39
    acceptance
  • 00:05:41
    i could not allow that to stand which is
  • 00:05:43
    why i'm rising today to raise this point
  • 00:05:46
    of personal privilege
  • 00:05:49
    and i do not need
  • 00:05:51
    representative yoho to apologize to me
  • 00:05:55
    clearly he does not want to
  • 00:05:57
    clearly when given the opportunity he
  • 00:06:00
    will not and i will not stay up late at
  • 00:06:03
    night waiting for an apology from a man
  • 00:06:06
    who has no remorse over calling women
  • 00:06:09
    and using abusive language towards women
  • 00:06:13
    but what i do
  • 00:06:14
    have issue with
  • 00:06:16
    is using women
  • 00:06:18
    our wives and daughters as shields and
  • 00:06:22
    excuses
  • 00:06:24
    for poor behavior
  • 00:06:26
    mr yoho mentioned that he has a wife and
  • 00:06:28
    two daughters
  • 00:06:30
    i am two years younger than mr yoho's
  • 00:06:33
    youngest daughter
  • 00:06:36
    i
  • 00:06:37
    am someone's daughter too
  • 00:06:41
    my father thankfully
  • 00:06:44
    is not alive
  • 00:06:46
    to see how mr yoho treated his daughter
  • 00:06:51
    my mother
  • 00:06:52
    got to see
  • 00:06:54
    mr yoho's disrespect on the floor of
  • 00:06:57
    this house towards me on television
  • 00:07:00
    and i am here because i have to show my
  • 00:07:03
    parents that i am their daughter and
  • 00:07:06
    that they did not raise me to accept
  • 00:07:09
    abuse from men
  • 00:07:12
    now
  • 00:07:13
    what i am here to say
  • 00:07:16
    is that this harm that mr yoho levied
  • 00:07:19
    it tried to levy against me
  • 00:07:22
    was not just an incident directed at me
  • 00:07:27
    but when you do that to any woman
  • 00:07:30
    what mr yoho did was give permission to
  • 00:07:34
    other men to do that to his daughters
  • 00:07:38
    he gave in using that language
  • 00:07:40
    in front of the press
  • 00:07:42
    he gave permission to use that language
  • 00:07:46
    against his wife his daughters women in
  • 00:07:49
    his community and i am here to stand up
  • 00:07:52
    to say that is not acceptable
  • 00:07:55
    i do not care what your views are
  • 00:07:59
    it does not matter how much i disagree
  • 00:08:01
    or how much it incenses me or how much i
  • 00:08:04
    feel that people are dehumanizing others
  • 00:08:06
    i will not do that myself
  • 00:08:10
    i will not allow people
  • 00:08:12
    to change
  • 00:08:14
    and create hatred in our hearts
  • 00:08:18
    and so what i believe
  • 00:08:21
    is that
  • 00:08:22
    having a daughter
  • 00:08:24
    does not make a man decent
  • 00:08:28
    having a wife
  • 00:08:29
    does not make a decent man
  • 00:08:32
    treating people with dignity and respect
  • 00:08:36
    makes a decent man
  • 00:08:39
    and when a decent man messes up as we
  • 00:08:43
    all are bound to do
  • 00:08:46
    he tries his best and does apologize
  • 00:08:50
    not to save face
  • 00:08:52
    not to win a vote
  • 00:08:54
    he apologizes
  • 00:08:56
    genuinely to repair and acknowledge the
  • 00:09:00
    harm done
  • 00:09:01
    so that we can all move on
  • 00:09:06
    lastly what i want to express to mr yoho
  • 00:09:10
    is gratitude
  • 00:09:12
    i want to thank him
  • 00:09:15
    for showing the world
  • 00:09:17
    that you can be a powerful man
  • 00:09:20
    and a cost women
  • 00:09:23
    you can have daughters
  • 00:09:25
    and accost women without remorse you can
  • 00:09:28
    be married and across women you can take
  • 00:09:31
    photos and project an image to the world
  • 00:09:34
    of being a family man
  • 00:09:36
    and a cost women
  • 00:09:38
    without remorse and with a sense of
  • 00:09:40
    impunity
  • 00:09:42
    it happens every day in this country
  • 00:09:45
    it happened here on the steps of our
  • 00:09:47
    nation's capital
  • 00:09:49
    it happens
  • 00:09:51
    when
  • 00:09:52
    the when individuals who hold the
  • 00:09:54
    highest office in this land admit
  • 00:09:57
    admit
  • 00:09:59
    to hurting women and using this language
  • 00:10:02
    against
  • 00:10:03
    all of us
  • 00:10:05
    but once again i i thank my colleagues
  • 00:10:08
    for joining us today and i will reserve
  • 00:10:11
    the hour of my time and i will yield to
  • 00:10:14
    my colleague
  • 00:10:15
    representative jayapal of washington
