mandate isn't even required in the hyde amendment, and it ignores the many reasons why rape goes unreported, including the fear of the abuser, fear of how the legal system may treat the victim and shame. in short, the majority has determined that a woman's word is not enough to prove that she has been raped or the victim of incest. this pernicious legislation would also impose criminal penalties on doctors and other medical professionals. but let's consider the facts beginning with the sponsor's , mments that, quote-unquote incidents of rape resulting in pregnancy is low and there is no need for an exception. on the contrary, rape-induced pregnancy unfortunately, i'm sad to say, occurs with some frequency. for example, the rape, abuse and incest national network reported that during 2004 and raped 4,080 women were 3,204 hose rapes pregnancies resulted. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time has expired. the gentlelady from california. ms. lofgren: i reserve my time. the speaker pro tempore: reserves. the gentlelady from tennessee is recognized. mrs. blackburn: at this time i yield th

everybody has to believe their reputation is at stake with sexual assault is committed it goes unreported rory bad results in the end. what we have done legally to impress upon the commanders how seriously we view this and how seriously society views. i have been ned judge advocate over 30 years if you want to get somebody's attention talk about your issue or presentation going to the highest level of the comanche a new looseleaf about we will say because you know, that matters. so we have a proposal. senator you have been terrific said if the judge said -- advocate recommends prosecution the commander says i don't think so it automatically goes to the secretary of the service involved. i cannot think of a more chilling statement to make to empower a lawyer they and have the commander's decision reviewed by the secretary of service in question. that is a huge chromatics step in the right direction that stays within the chain of command. if there is agreement by the jagged and the commander not the right case to go forward you automatically have the commanders commander look over their sho

there are also compelling statistics that they are allowed to go unreported. when you asked the young soldier or airman why, it is, i do not trust the commander. i do not trust the whole system. and i think there is enough , and to not dismiss that the intention of many proposals is to provide that kind of trust, so how do you respond to the issue more specifically at those anyone else has a quick comment, how do you respond to the issue? it is all about trust. >> i can only speak from my own experience. my experience working through sexual assaults is limited. in my earrings, this is such a personal crime. it is so embarrassing. that is what, in my experience, causes the lack of reporting. that is the number one reason. it is embarrassing. you have an 18-year-old kid who wants to do well who is embarrassed by it. that is what causes it. in my experience, i have never met a commander who would not stop time when they hear that somebody this is occurring -- something like this is occurring. i read the newspapers and i see what is going on. but i do not see it w

interesting stories go unnoticed and unreported. they are trying to do high quality and accurate reporting, especially about things in the federal government that aren't being governmented. host: what's chief? guest: there's a lot of them. for example, on the irs story, we -- one of our editors did a story about that back in march of last year based on material that was being put out by the american center for law and justice. i think we were ahead of the curve. i don't think we knew where it was going to go. the inspector generals report really kicked that one into high gear. we have been ahead of the curve in reporting on things like benghazi. you see the report about medicare on the front page of the "new york times." we put a strong focus on explaining to people, putting out government data about what's going on in the welfare state. i think that "new york times" story is polyannaish. >>host: tell us your take. guest: they came out with the report. it is better than people expected. it is not going to go and solve it. the fact o

in fact, the pentagon says that every week, every single week, 400 sexual assaults go unreported. but even though we've heard much more about this problem lately, in no way is it a new problem. almost every day i hear from another veteran who is the survivor of sexual assault in the military. men and women of all ages, from every branch of the service, from every era. i have heard of the survivors of sexual assault from world war ii, the war in afghanistan and every conflict and every era in between. there is no question, we have to get to the root of the problem, we have to reform the legal system and change the culture so sexual assault in the military is no longer tolerated and is thoroughly prosecuted. but the sad fact remains, even if sexual assault in the military ended today, even if a woman or man in uniform was never raped again, there would still be tens of thousands of veterans who survived a sexual assault and suffer a disability because of it. but still can't get veterans disability benefits that they are owed. that's why we need this bill, the ruth moore act. this bi
