This Wednesday, March 24, 2021, screen capture of an open meeting via Zoom of the Maine Legislature's public taxation hearing shows Rep. Bruce Bickford, R-Auburn, bottom right, projected before a background image bearing the words "Harvey Weinstein Charm School Rehab Center." The Legislature's Human Resources Department is investigating whether the image violates lawmakers' policy on harassment. Bickford apologized, calling it "inappropriate and in poor taste." Weinstein is a former Hollywood producer who faced accusations from more than 80 women that he sexually assaulted them. (Maine Legislature via Zoom via AP)
