We did it.
The new law requires the Maine attorney general’s office to review how the guard handled past reports of sexual assault and harassment to local law enforcement agencies, including the option of bringing new criminal charges. #MEPolitics bangordailynews.com/2022/04/…

My hope is that the Maine Legislature, including Sen. @craighickman and Rep. Chris Caiazzo of the veterans and legal affairs committee, will find this report to be an insufficient response and demand an independent investigation of the MEARNG.
But the Maine Army National Guard's proposal didn’t address how it would prevent sexual assault from happening or protect soldiers from retaliation. bangordailynews.com/2022/03/…

We can’t go back to the days when women had to risk their lives to end an unwanted pregnancy. We must pass legislation that codifies Roe v. Wade as the law of the land. And if there aren’t 60 votes to do it, and there are not, we must reform the filibuster to pass it with 50.

“Leadership is solving problems. The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them. They have either lost confidence that you can help or concluded that you do not care. Either case is a failure in leadership.”
