“These disturbing allegations make clear that no workplace, including Minnesota’s State Capitol, is immune to sexual harassment,” DFL Party Chairman Ken Martin said in a statement. “The DFL stands strongly with the women who bravely shared their difficult stories, and all others who may have been harassed by Senator Dan Schoen. There is no room in our party for sexual harassment. The DFL calls for Senator Schoen’s immediate resignation.”
"After today's explosive allegations of sexual harassment against Democrat State Senator Dan Schoen, I am insisting that he resign from his position as a Minnesota lawmaker,” Republican Party Chairwoman Jennifer Carnahan also said in a statement.

till, after being presented with the allegations on Wednesday, DFL Senate Minority Leader Tom Bakk and the entire leadership team of the caucus called for Schoen to apologize and resign from his seat in the Legislature.
“These victims’ allegations are sobering and disturbing. Sen. Schoen’s actions, even with additional context, were inappropriate and do not meet the standards for behavior of a state legislator,” Bakk said. “I have discussed these allegations with my leadership team and we are united in our call for Sen. Dan Schoen to apologize, step aside, and seek care to address these actions.”
