gretchen: yes, of course. majority of people that we hear from in this world about sexual harassment and sexual misconduct are from members of our military. and many of these senators who are going to be making these decisions have been very proactive in trying to pass laws to make the military safer for women. so i'm going to point out that senator joni ernst, i know a lot of responsibility falls on her shoulders, but she's a sexual assault survivor. she's also a combat veteran. and she's also been instrumental in trying to pass legislation to make military women have a safer environment. so i would hope, especially she, along with men in the senate as well, and other women, that they would take a real close look tomorrow when they start this hearing and that they would not overlook putting somebody in power who has these kind of allegations against him and then would be in charge of rectifying these kinds of allegations if they come forward. laura: hegseth is not the only one to face sexual assault allegatio

gretchen rivera rosado, natural de corozal, era una aficionada de los aviones, pero no sabía que las en el mundo de la aeronáutica y me di cuenta que sí, que las mujeres podían ser pilotos y entonces ahí pues me cambié, me di de baja de psicología y decidí entrar a la ínter, pero al área de aviación llegar allí y ver otras muchachas fue bien emocionante y bien. me dio mucha motivación para seguir. somos pocas, pero como quiera ver a otras féminas, pues fue de motivación para mí. cada vez son más las mujeres que se abren paso en la aviación y gretchen las exhortó a luchar hasta lograrlo. que no se quiten este. yo nunca me quité. yo me tardé 10 años, literalmente 10 años, pero nunca, nunca me me me quité. sí, eso es lo que te apasiona. te tiene que apasionar como cualquier otra cosa. la piloto que en unas 2 semanas se espera inicie sus vuelos comerciales con la aerolínea frontier desde la base de san juan, agradece a sus padres por haberla ayudado en todo momento a cumplir su sueño. gracias. eh? sí. sin ustedes yo no hubiese llegado aquí definitivamente 100% no hubiese llegado. qué bon

julie, you wrote a letter alongside gretchen carlson speaking out for survivors of sexual harassment assault. why was it important for you personally to send this letter? >> well, gretchen carlson and i, in the wake of our own experiences at fox news, created an organization called lift our voices that's dedicated to eradicating silencing mechanisms in the workplace that cover up things like sexual assault and sexual harassment and the beauty of what we were able to accomplish is that the senate unanimously voted for our law, the speak out act, which effectively allows survivors and pre-dispute ndas to get out of their ndas and to tell their truth. and so, from our perspective, the very same senators who unanimously voted for this legislation and also something called the ending forced arbitration for sexual assault and sexual harassment act, which also gives women back their voice. these senators unanimously voted for both these bills and gave brilliant floor speeches about how they wanted survivors to come forward, how they wanted to give survivors back their voices, how they wante
