FDIC 受到批评：报告揭露了骚扰和歧视的有毒文化

Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Under Fire: Explosive Report Reveals Toxic Culture of Discrimination and Harassment

联邦存款保险公司受到抨击：爆炸性报告揭示了歧视和骚扰的有毒文化

In a damning exposé that has sent shockwaves through Washington, an independent report has unveiled a deeply troubling culture of sexual harassment, discrimination, and retaliation within the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). The findings have sparked a bipartisan outcry, with lawmakers from both sides of the aisle calling for immediate action to address the systemic problems that have plagued the agency for years.

一份独立报告揭露了联邦存款保险公司 (FDIC) 内部令人深感不安的性骚扰、歧视和报复文化，这一事件在华盛顿引起了轩然大波。这些调查结果引发了两党的强烈抗议，两党议员都呼吁立即采取行动，解决困扰该机构多年的系统性问题。

Bipartisan Fury over Toxic Culture

两党对有毒文化的愤怒

House Financial Services Committee Chairman Patrick McHenry (R-NC) wasted no time in lambasting FDIC Chairman Martin Gruenberg, accusing him of failing his employees, the agency, and the American people. "The FDIC must be held to the same standards of conduct it imposes on the entities it regulates," McHenry declared. "The agency's culture must be overhauled."

众议院金融服务委员会主席帕特里克·麦克亨利（北卡罗来纳州共和党）立即痛斥 FDIC 主席马丁·格伦伯格，指责他辜负了员工、该机构和美国人民的期望。麦克亨利宣称：“FDIC 必须遵守与其监管的实体相同的行为标准。” “该机构的文化必须进行彻底改革。”

Senator Tim Scott (R-SC) echoed McHenry's criticism, urging Gruenberg to resign. "Marty, you should resign," Scott said bluntly. "You've heard me say this directly."

参议员蒂姆·斯科特（南卡罗来纳州共和党）回应了麦克亨利的批评，敦促格伦伯格辞职。 “马蒂，你应该辞职，”斯科特直言不讳地说。 “你已经听我直接说过这句话了。”

Representative Maxine Waters (D-CA) set the tone for the congressional hearings, expressing Congress's revulsion at the 234-page report. "It makes clear under both Republican and Democratic chairs that the FDIC has not done its job properly," Waters stated.

众议员玛克辛·沃特斯 (D-CA) 为国会听证会定下了基调，表达了国会对这份 234 页报告的反感。沃特斯表示：“在共和党和民主党的领导下，联邦存款保险公司都没有妥善履行其职责。”

Shocking Revelations from Employees

员工的令人震惊的爆料

The report paints a grim picture of a hostile and discriminatory workplace, where employees have been subjected to a litany of abuses. One supervisor allegedly made regular comments about a woman's legs and other body parts, as well as his sex life. Another woman reported receiving a photo of an FDIC supervisor's genitals.

该报告描绘了一幅充满敌意和歧视的工作场所的严峻景象，员工遭受了一连串的虐待。据称，一名主管经常对一名女性的腿部和其他身体部位以及他的性生活发表评论。另一位女士报告说收到了一张 FDIC 主管的生殖器照片。

Employees also reported feeling "demoralized" after being told by colleagues that they were "only hired" to fill quotas. Homophobic statements, such as referring to gay men as "little girls," were also documented.

员工们还表示，在同事告诉他们“只是为了填补配额而雇用”他们后，他们感到“士气低落”。还记录了仇视同性恋的言论，例如将男同性恋者称为“小女孩”。

Outrage over Gender Discrimination and Retaliation

对性别歧视和报复的愤怒

Senator Katie Britt (R-AL) was particularly incensed by the "disturbing" findings, which included "hundreds of instances of gender discrimination, unsolicited sexual advances, harassment and assault and even difficulty being promoted after having children."

参议员凯蒂·布里特（共和党-阿拉巴马州）对这些“令人不安”的调查结果尤其愤怒，其中包括“数百起性别歧视、未经请求的性挑衅、骚扰和攻击，甚至在生孩子后难以升职”。

"Let me repeat: Individuals within a United States agency denied opportunities to women because they chose to have a family," Britt said.

“让我再说一遍：美国机构内的个人拒绝给予女性机会，因为她们选择组建家庭，”布里特说。

Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH) raised concerns that the toxic culture within the FDIC had compromised its ability to supervise the financial sector. "I worry the culture you created at the FDIC has people terrified to answer honestly," Vance said to Gruenberg. "If they're not answering honestly, it's impossible for us to do our job of overseeing what you guys do."

俄亥俄州共和党参议员 J.D. 万斯 (J.D. Vance) 担心 FDIC 内部的有毒文化损害了其监管金融部门的能力。 “我担心你在 FDIC 创造的文化让人们不敢诚实回答，”万斯对格伦伯格说。 “如果他们不诚实回答，我们就不可能完成监督你们所做的事情。”

Cautious Optimism and Demands for Accountability

谨慎乐观和问责要求

While Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) expressed concern, she stopped short of calling for Gruenberg's resignation. However, she emphasized that replacing Gruenberg with Vice Chairman Travis Hill would be a "purely political" move and would not address the underlying cultural problems within the FDIC.

虽然参议员伊丽莎白·沃伦（D-MA）表达了担忧，但她没有呼吁格伦伯格辞职。不过，她强调，用副主席特拉维斯·希尔取代格伦伯格将是“纯粹的政治”举措，不会解决 FDIC 内部潜在的文化问题。

"Your resignation would do nothing for the toxic culture at the FDIC, but it would give Republicans a veto over bank policy," Warren said. "Culture starts at the top, and it's your responsibility to fix this."

沃伦说：“你的辞职对联邦存款保险公司的有毒文化没有任何帮助，但它会让共和党人对银行政策拥有否决权。” “文化始于高层，解决这个问题是你的责任。”

In the wake of the explosive report, several references were made to additional future hearings, indicating that the investigation into the FDIC's toxic culture is far from over. Lawmakers are determined to hold the agency accountable for its failures and ensure that such a hostile and discriminatory environment never takes root again.

爆炸性报告发布后，多次提到未来将举行更多听证会，这表明对 FDIC 有毒文化的调查还远未结束。立法者决心让该机构对其失败承担责任，并确保这种敌对和歧视性的环境不再扎根。
