“I plead with my colleagues to really consider this. I ask them really just one small, simple favor: Will they call their constituent services' offices to see how many recruits they have been contacted by back home during this past year asking for relief from military duty because they were sexually assaulted, got pregnant at basic training or at training, and see what the numbers are in their particular office? One is too many. But I would be interested to see how many of them have had multiple contacts in their office. We shouldn't ignore this anymore. We should deal with it. This is a minor request we should be making.”
