On the recordJune 13, 2013
In the past, yes, absolutely justice has been delayed and we have not seen the answers for our victims that they need that have been victims of sexual assault in our military. I wasn't here to work on the other NDAA bills. I wasn't here to have the debate during those conversations that were had in the past. A lot of the things that were done and discussed were empty words and broken promises. Today, I'm here to say that these reforms that are included in H.R. 1960 will help our victims and will stop sexual assault in the military today. Mr. McGOVERN. Mr. Speaker, it is my privilege now to yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Maryland, the Democratic whip, Mr. Hoyer. (Mr. HOYER asked and was given permission to revise and extend his remarks.)
