Franken is set to make a speech on the Senate floor on Thursday, and speculation has swirled as to whether he will resign from the chamber.

Numerous women have come forward in recent weeks to accuse Moore, a former Alabama Supreme Court justice, of pursuing sexual and romantic relations with them when they were teenagers and he was in his 30s.

One of his accusers, Leigh Corfman, has said that she was 14 years old at the time of a sexual encounter with Moore.

Kelly faced charges a decade ago for allegedly making a sex tape with an underage girl. He was acquitted on all counts in that case in 2008.
