This is women finally feeling empowered enough to bring these issues to light, instead of just "dealing with it" for years. No one deserves to be in a situation where they are made to feel uncomfortable because of obviously inappropriate actions or comments. This isn't hurting the victims, this is the victims finally finding their voice.
So are these staffers being told by somebody higher up to just ignore the behavior or what is going on there? That seems like aside from Hehr's poor behavior, there is a bit of enabling going on as well. Was this ever escalated beyond simply warning of the female staffers to simply be aware of Hehr's comments? This is kind of astounding that it's at a level where all females are warned of this guys behavior and that's about it (at least the optics from out here seems like that was how this was mitigated).
