Rep. Gerry Studds faces reporters outside the Capitol on July 20, 1983, after he was censured on the House floor.
Studds, a Massachusetts Democratic congressman, admitted having a sexual relationship with a 17-year-old male Congressional page. The admission stemmed from a 1983 House Ethics Committee investigation into Studds and Illinois GOP Rep. Dan Crane. Crane, who admitted having a relationship with a 17-year-old female intern, was defeated for re-election, but Studds kept his seat until he retired in 1997.
