We've Got To Understand That

Most Women Who Are Harassed Don't Come Forward, They Don't Complain Because They're Skeptical Of The Process, Or They Don't Think Anything Is Going To Come Of It If They Are Found To Have Been Harassed. We Know From Some Very Public Cases That Sexual Assault Isn't Always Punished Even By The Courts In The Way That They Should Be. So, We Have Got To Figure Out, How Are We Going To Embed Women's Experiences In The Processes, So That They Trust The Processes, That There Are Fair Investigations That Get To The Truth, And Then There Is Appropriate Punishment When Abuse Occurs?

I Did What My Conscience Told Me To Do, And You Can't Fail If You Do That.

Many Women Are Harassed, One In Three Between The Ages Of 18 And 34, By One Poll. And We Need To Figure Out If, In Fact, We Are Going To Enable Them To Come Forward With Their Complaints, As Opposed To Enabling Harassers And Abusers To Continue Their Behavior.

Testifying Has Helped Me Understand That One Individual's Behavior And Actions Make A Difference. That My Actions Are Important To People Other Than Myself

I Am Really Proud To Be A Part In Whatever Way Of Women Becoming Active In The Political Scene. I Think It Was The First Time That People Came To Terms With The Reality Of What It Meant To Have A Senate Made Up Of 98 Men And Two Women.
