On Families & Children: Called Congresswomen "eye candy" during press conference

Rep. Mark Walker called his female colleagues "eye candy" during a press conference. "The accomplished men and women of the RSC. And women, if it wasn't sexist, I would say the RSC eye candy, but we'll leave that out of the record," Walker said.

"During a press event today, I made a flippant remark meant to be light-hearted, but fell short," Walker said in a statement. "I'm proud of the women who serve in Congress, and in the leadership of the Republican Study Committee."
