House Speaker Mike Johnson and Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries are preparing to announce a bipartisan task force focused on reforming how sexual misconduct claims are handled within the House of Representatives, according to multiple sources.

The initiative represents a collaborative effort between the Republican Women's Caucus and the Democratic Women's Caucus to develop proposed reforms for addressing sexual misconduct in the chamber.

The bipartisan effort comes as the House has faced recent challenges related to sexual misconduct issues, prompting leadership from both parties to seek systematic changes to existing procedures.

The task force will work to examine current policies and propose new approaches for handling such claims within the legislative body. Details about the specific scope and timeline of the group's work have not yet been announced.

Both Johnson and Jeffries are expected to formally announce the initiative in the coming days, marking a rare area of bipartisan cooperation in an otherwise divided chamber.
