Lawmakers Look at National Guard Requirements, Harassment Protocol

Lawmakers are looking to follow-up on reports of sexual harassment and sexual abuse in the National Guard with some new laws.

There’s a hearing scheduled for tomorrow in the State Assembly to hear three new proposals that would add new requirements for the Guard in Wisconsin. An investigation into the Air Guard unit in Madison showed a pattern of abuse, harassment, and misconduct over a number of years. One of the new laws would require a report from the Guard to the legislature on harassment and abuse complaints, another would track those complaints, and the third would spell-out new policies on what is and is not allowed within the Guard.
