Rep. Bill Kramer, R-Waukesha, was charged with two counts of sexual assault Friday.
District Attorney Debra Blasius filed the charges Friday in the Waukesha Circuit Court, accusing Bill Kramer of groping an aide in 2011 at a “Pint and Politics” event in Muskego, Wis.
The complaint said Kramer made repeated unwanted sexual advances in the parking lot of High Tide Pub & Grill.
The victim said in the complaint she heard about Kramer’s Washington D.C. sexual harassment accusations and decided to contact authorities to disclose her experience.
According to the complaint, the victim did not originally file charges because she wanted to forget the incident and avoid embarrassment for the Republican Party.
In early March, Kramer was accused of groping a woman in a bar at a fundraiser event in D.C. and passing inappropriate comments to a woman on the return plane flight.
Assembly Republicans voted to remove Kramer from his majority leader position following the allegations.
