Samantha Bee Will Caress Ted Cruz If This Military Anti-Rape Bill Passes

We agree with ... (deep breath) ... Ted Cruz. #passMJIA

In 2014, of the 20,300 cases of sexual assault in the U.S. military (48 percent female, 52 percent male), only 6,131 reports were actually filed.

Senator Kirsten Gillibrand of New York is pushing the Military Justice Improvement Act (MJIA), which allows victims of sexual assault in the armed forces to report sex crimes without fear of retaliation.

For some inexplicable reason, the legislation has still not been passed, though it is even supported by occasional-feeler-of-feelings Senator Ted Cruz.

Samantha Bee takes us through the ins and outs of MJIA.

Bee went on to pledge that if MJIA passes, she will caress Cruz. There's no way she's bluffing. No one just flippantly says crazy s**t like that.
