"Vanessa Guillen, today I’m honoring you. You are the definition of brave. Thank you for not only serving our country, but for trying to speak up, for trying to use your voice to protect yourself and other women.
•For those that are new to Vanessa’s story , Vanessa was sexually harassed and decided to speak up. The day before she was planning to report it she disappeared and we recently found out, murdered. The U.S Army didn’t just fail to protect her, they tried to cover it up, dragging their feet in her search. At least 25% of women in the military have been sexually assaulted and 80% sexually harassed.
•I’ll say it again, you are the very definition of brave. And if you have a similar story, I am speaking to you as well. We must do a better job protecting those who protect us. And we must continue to fight for justice! we call this country the land of the free and home of the brave. Today won’t be a celebration until we feel free to be brave.
