Take Action Against Sexual Assualt in the U.S. Military 

Support the Military Justice Improvement Act                                                                          Take Action!
Urge Your Elected Officials to Act Now
 
According to a U.S. Department of Defense Report, approximately 26,000 sexual assault or unwanted sexual contact incidents were reported in 2012, representing a 37% increase from 2011.

The Military Justice Improvement Act—a bi-partisan Senate-House bill—was introduced to bring about necessary changes for handling and prosecuting sexual assault cases within the U.S. Military.

In accordance with GFWC Resolutions 015-550 Sexual Assault and 015-730 Sexual Assault of Women Serving in and with the Armed Forces, GFWC supports legislation that will put an end to this national issue. Urge Congress to act now.
