Pablo Martinez Monsivais/ASSOCIATED PRESS Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), left, listens to his communications director, Matt House, before speaking to members of the media on Capitol Hill on July 11, 2017. House was forced out of his job in Schumer's office after allegations of sexual misconduct. HuffPost has learned, through two sources with knowledge of the situation, that House was pushed out for allegedly having inappropriate sexual encounters with junior staffers, ending what was a nearly six-year tenure as communications director for the New York Democrat. A source familiar with the matter, who spoke only on the condition of anonymity, said that no formal legal complaints were filed against House through Schumer’s Senate office. According to his LinkedIn page, House served as Schumer’s communications director from June 2013 through November 2018.
