Can I sue my ex-boss for sexual harassment at work and retaliation?

Can I sue my ex-boss for sexual harassment at work and retaliation?

He made comments to me daily and grabbed me and kissed me twice (once sticking tongue down my throat). He asked me how I liked it. He accused me of taking money but I didn’t. He ripped me off of money one time. He was afraid I would tell everyone and he wanted me out of there. He finally fired me and lied to me. He resigned a few days ago. I want to sue him for treating me so badly. I was a wreck.
