Warren Says She’s Been Treated Differently as a Woman in Senate

Senator Elizabeth Warren answered affirmatively to a question today about whether she has been treated differently by her Senate colleagues because of her gender. Warren sat down with CNN’s Gloria Borger, who brought up Kirsten Gillibrand‘s past claims of sexism by her colleagues (though she declined to name names).

Warren said she’s also had similar experiences, but gave a firm “nope” when Borger asked if she would elaborate.

She did say, “It’s hard to change these big, male dominated institutions. What I am very happy about is that there are now enough women in the United States Senate to bring change to that place and I think that’s just powerfully important.”
