Reposted by Women in the Service Coalition, Inc.Senator Mazie K. Hirono @hirono.senate.gov · 30/07/2026That's why I'm introducing the WARRIOR Act alongside @duckworth.senate.gov and our Democratic colleagues. To do what Pete Hegseth won't: strengthen our military by ensuring that every servicemember is judged on their ability, not their gender. 19thnews.org/2026/07/wome...19thnews.orgWomen have served in combat for a decade. Lawmakers want to protect that right.“As far as I’m concerned, the only person who doesn’t think that women should have the opportunity to serve in these roles is Hegseth,” said Sen. Mazie Hirono, a lead sponsor of a new bill. 0186
Reposted by Women in the Service Coalition, Inc.Sue Fulton @suefulton.bsky.social · 15/07/2026For 10 years now, women have met and exceeded what Hegseth calls “the highest male standards” and what infantry soldiers call “the standards.” Hegseth continues to look for any excuse to remove women from a role he failed at - even if he has to rig the study. thewarhorse.org/women-in-com...thewarhorse.orgHegseth Ordered a New Study of Women in Combat.

Women in the Service Coalition, Inc. @wisci.bsky.social · 15/07/2026Hegseth keeps changing his study to get the conclusions he wants. “This study has already been done,” said Rep.
