- US House censures Reps. Crane and Studds for sexual misconduct with pages On July 20, 1983, the U.S. House of Representatives censured Reps. Daniel Crane (R-IL) and Gerry Studds (D-MA) for engaging in sexual relationships with 17-year-old congressional pages. Crane admitted to a relationship with a female page in 1980, while Studds acknowledged a relationship with a male page in 1973. Both were initially recommended for reprimand by the House Ethics Committee, but the full House voted to impose censure, a more severe punishment. Crane tearfully apologized to his colleagues, and Studds faced the censure with his back to the House, hands clasped behind him. This marked the first time in congressional history that censure was imposed for sexual misconduct. source: washingtonpost.com
