This month, a shocking Department of Defense report estimated that 26,000 sexual assaults took place in the military last year. This is disgraceful: one sexual assault is too many.
But still thousands of rapes in the military are never reported, let alone brought to trial. There is a dangerous deafness to sexual assault in the military and many survivors suffer in silence.
Stand with Victims of Military Sexual Assault: Add your name to join the fight to fix the military's response to sexual assaults.
Democrats in Congress are taking a stand to better protect our service men and women -- but they need our support to ensure that independent prosecutors are deciding whether to prosecute sexual assault cases.
Will you step up and add your name in support of the Military Justice Improvement Act?
