A female California state leader defended herself against accusations of alcoholism by insinuating the entire state capitol engages in heavy drinking.
Democratic assemblywoman Cristina Garcia, facing accusations of sexually harassing and assaulting male employees, tried to also defend herself from those saying she has a drinking problem Monday.
When asked by KQED’s The California Report to address rumors that she has a keg in her office, Garcia seemingly brushed it off by saying it’s common for fellow assemblymembers to have kegs in their offices.
“At some point I’ve had a keg at my office. A lot of us do. It’s part of the culture of socializing after the way business gets done. I think we can have a discussion about that and discuss whether or not that’s appropriate. But because you have alcohol or you are in the possession of alcohol doesn’t make you an alcoholic,” Garcia told The California Report.
