DescriptionMore than two dozen of Sen. Bernie Sanders’ former campaign staffers have signed a letter asking to meet with the Vermont Senator to discuss “the issue of sexual harassment and violence on the 2016 campaign” as Sanders eyes a potential 2020 run.

The letter, which was obtained by Politico, said that 2016 campaign staffers have been talking in recent weeks about the “untenable and dangerous dynamic that developed during our campaign.” The letter also references a “predatory culture” during Sanders’ unsuccessful 2016 Democratic primary run.

The letter does not detail any specific incidents or identify anyone suspected of wrongdoing. Nor does it imply that Sanders himself was involved in any of the incidents.
