9) My question to . @USBPChief and the other chiefs is when are you all going to quit lying and address the RAPE CULTURE within the #BorderPatrol? When are you going to recognize that you are responsible for this culture?

10) When is . @HomelandDems and . @OversightDems going to address this? Knowing this goes on with female agents in the Patrol, what do you think is happening to female migrants? To children?

11) My rape at the hands of a fellow agent was over 20 years ago. It still affects me today. Especially whenI read that this is still going on. Especially whenI hear their same responses from . @USBPChief that it’s just a few bad apples.

12) It is way past time to clean up the #BorderPatrol. This IS the culture of the agency, from the top to the bottom. STOP THIS BORDER PATROL RAPE CULTURE!!! . @HispanicCaucus . @SBCCoalition . @AOC . @JoaquinCastrotx . @NormaJTorres
