A California lawmaker at the forefront of the Me Too movement is facing allegations of sexual misconduct.
State Assemblywoman Cristina Garcia is accused of groping a man at a 2014 softball game.
"I am certain I did not engage in the behavior I am accused of," Garcia said in a statement.
The statement went on to say any claims of sexual harassment must be taken seriously. Garcia is taking an unpaid leave of absence.
