About Trent Franks

  • Harold Trent Franks (born June 19, 1957) is a former American politician and businessman who served as the U.S.
  • Representative for Arizona's 8th congressional district from 2003 to 2017.
  • He is a member of the Republican Party.
  • The 8th district, numbered as the 2nd District from 2003 to 2013, is located in the West Valley portion of the Valley of the Sun and includes Glendale, Surprise, Sun City, Peoria and part of western Phoenix. In December 2017, the House Ethics Committee announced that it would investigate allegations of sexual harassment against Franks.
  • Franks had repeatedly asked two female staffers to bear his children as surrogate mothers, and allegedly offered one of them $5 million to carry his child and retaliated against her when she declined.
  • The women feared that Franks wanted to impregnate them sexually as part of the surrogacy process.
  • Franks acknowledged discussing surrogacy with the aides but denied the other allegations; he resigned from Congress immediately after the ethics investigation was announced, blaming his situation on "the current cultural and media climate".
