watch the congressional hearing on military hazing



The tragic deaths of Private Danny Chen and Lance Corporal Harry Lew brought public attention to the issue of hazing and harassment in the U.S. military. Congresswoman Judy Chu -- Lew's aunt -- has been leading the charge to address this serious problem.

Tomorrow, March 22 at 1:00pmET/10:00am PT, the House Armed Services Committee will hold a hearing on hazing in the military. This is an important step towards holding the military accountable, and Rep. Chu will pushing them to implement a zero-tolerance hazing policy.

The hearing will be live streamed, so you can watch it here.

Meanwhile, OCA has another online petition calling for accountability from the Department of Defense to have a zero-tolerance harassment policy. Sign it here: Support a Zero-Tolerance Harassment Policy in the Military.
