Harvey Weinstein was sentenced to 15 years in prison today after being found guilty last year of a first-degree criminal sex act. We’re thinking of the bravery of the Silence Breakers—the women who came forward & spoke out on the sexual abuse they experienced at his hands for decades.
“The journey to accountability is long… and even when sexual predators are convicted and sentenced, survivors are left to face the lasting impacts of retraumatizing public trials, destroyed careers, and more. Our country, its leaders and our judicial system must recognize sexual violence for what it is: an epidemic that impacts all of us.”

'cause you know. Political Reasons. (they don't want you to have rights). AND Congress can fix equal rights with one bill. HOWEVER, we need the "right congress" to have the WILL to fix it. So. What can you do? VOTE EQUALITY. Choose the congress critter who pledges to support Equal Rights.

Malnutrition Crisis Deepens as Funding Cuts Close Nearly 600 Health Facilities in Afghanistan, Save the Children Says
