CPAC Chair Matt Schlapp Faces New Sexual Assault Allegations
This explains why CPAC vice chair Charlie Gerow resigned last week. Readers may remember Gerow from 2021 when he was running for governor in Pennsylvania, and was involved in a crash that killed a motorcyclist. Gerow maintained he did nothing wrong, but apparently drove for several miles with the motorcycle and the man he killed stuck to his grille.
Now even he is throwing Matt Schlapp under the bus.
A senior board member of the parent organization behind the prominent Conservative Political Action Conference who resigned on Friday urged an independent investigation into additional allegations of sexual misconduct against Chairman Matt Schlapp.
The vice chairman of the board of the American Conservative Union, Charlie Gerow, announced his resignation on Friday in a letter to other directors that called on them to authorize an investigation including any additional allegations that they or staff have become aware of, according to multiple people familiar with the letter, who spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of retaliation.
