Iowa Senator Joni Ernst has introduced a bill with a Democratic Senator from New York to mandate in-person sexual assault prevention training for new members of the military.  Ernst says this training would add to what’s already in place.

 

Ernst says they want to have the new recruits get in-person training to so they don’t create an ineffective computer-based teaching program.

 

Ernst says the training would include proper use of social media for newly enlisted service members in all branches of the U-S military before they depart for basic training.
