The word "scandal" is a bit hyperbolic. But at the same time this is the same group of men that represent women, families and daughters. These are the men voting for (or against) legislation for healthy teen relationships, workplace rights and women's healthcare.
Their participation in the objectification of women and throwing money at them, at a place where the stratification of wealth is at its most apparent state speaks about these men's views, beliefs and integrity.
The fact that a group of men went solidifies the notion of a "boy's club" being present on the OR Rep legislature. Let's progress.
The activity isn't illegal but it is inappropriate for an elected official. That is why they ran to California instead of saddling up to a stage in Portland. Wingard's threat of blackmail wouldn't carry much water unless there's more to their weekend in Palm Springs.

And really stupid.

Voters have a right to know.
