REUTERS/Jason Reed/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsNov 14 (Reuters) - Republican lawmakers on the House Financial Services Committee said Tuesday they were calling for an urgent briefing from a government watchdog to address reported allegations of pervasive sexual harassment at the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). FDIC Chairman Martin Gruenberg was likely to face questioning on the matter during Congressional hearings with other top banking regulators this week, including a Wednesday appearance before the House Financial Services Committee. Gruenberg on Monday told staff the agency would not tolerate sexual harassment and announced that the agency had hired an outside law firm to review its internal practices. The FDIC Office of Inspector General (OIG) reported in 2020 that the FDIC's efforts to prevent sexual harassment were inadequate. "As is our practice, we will continue to monitor management challenges at the FDIC as they are brought to the attention of the OIG, including matters related to sexual harassment," said FDIC Chief of Staff Jon Lebruto.

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Dak Prescott threw for two touchdowns, Zach Wilson had three interceptions in his first start after Aaron Rodgers' season-ending Achilles tendon injury, and the Dallas Cowboys beat the New York Jets 30-10 on Sunday. But New York had just 147 yards outside the long TD, and four second-half turnovers left little doubt for Dallas. Prescott targeted Lamb so much — 13 times, two shy of his career high — it was almost one too many. Cowboys: CB Jourdan Lewis made his season debut after missing the final 10 games last season with a broken foot. UP NEXTJets: The second AFC East rival in the first three weeks with a visit from New England next Sunday.
