      Tomw, I'll testify at Senate hearing about our bipartisan Campus Accountability & Safety Act to combat campus sexual assault. #passCASAct

      #CASAct will flip the incentives so colleges no longer sweep sexual assaults under the rug, but tackle the problem head on. #passCASAct

      Studies show up to 1 in 5 college women will experience unwanted sexual contact before they graduate. We must #passCASAct & end this crisis.

          @sengillibrand that 1 in 5 statistic is more mystical and non-existent than a troop of unicorns selling cookies.

          @SenGillibrand Not an accurate statistic; based on poorly-administered surveys & broad definitions of "rape." Realistic number is ~1 in 27.

          @SenGillibrand I mean, FFS you dropped the statistic from your own website when people pointed out that it was false! Why parrot it again?

          @SenGillibrand Correction: One unrepeatable study showed 20% of responders said they experienced some level of unwanted sexual contact.

          @iMattBrooks @SenGillibrand unwanted does not mean non consensual! Also study very flawed.

          @SenGillibrand Are you aware those studies use a definition of "unwanted" that includes fully-consentual intercourse btwn committed couples?
