U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) today issued the following statement upon the conclusion of the Army’s investigation into the killing of Spc. Vanessa Guillen:
“I’m pleased the Army concluded their investigation into the command climate at Ft. Hood and the issues surrounding the atrocious killing of Spc. Vanessa Guillen. They owed this to her family and all those who mourn her death, and I’m encouraged that the Army is prepared to implement meaningful change at Ft. Hood and across the entire service. The problem of sexual assault and harassment in our military is far too often pervasive in our armed forces, which is why I’ve long supported the bipartisan Military Justice Improvement Act. I’ll continue working with my colleagues to ensure we uphold our solemn obligation to protect the young women and men of our armed forces from sexual violence.”
