Although the allegations weren't against the presidential candidate, Milano said the 'buck stops at the top' and encouraged him to 'publicly remedy the matter.'
Actor and activist Alyssa Milano will no longer participate in an upcoming fundraiser for presidential candidate Andrew Yang because of the campaign's handling of alleged sexual misconduct between two staffers.
Although Milano said she hasn't endorsed any presidential candidate, she was scheduled to appear at the December 21 fundraiser for the entrepreneur alongside actor Teri Hatcher and Yang's wife, Evelyn. Andrew isn't a top contender in the race for the Democratic nomination, but he qualified for the upcoming debate, the sixth he'll participate in, and has gained vocal supporters.
"I wish Andrew, his family and his campaign well, and encourage him to immediately and publicly remedy this issue," Milano tweeted.
