Bill > S4367

This bill, the Protecting our Servicemembers through Proven Methods Act of 2022, aims to improve certain sexual assault and domestic violence prevention policies within the military. The key provisions of the bill are: 1. It requires the annual primary prevention research agenda to focus on whether and to what extent sub-populations of the military community may be targeted for sexual assault, sexual harassment, or domestic violence more than others. It also seeks to identify factors that influence the prevention, perpetration, and victimization of these issues, as well as improve the collection and dissemination of data on hazing and bullying related to these problems. 2. It requires the Comptroller General of the United States to submit a report comparing the sexual harassment and prevention training of the Department of Defense with similar programs at other Federal departments and agencies, including data collected by colleges, universities, and other relevant outside entities. 3. It mandates that the Primary Prevention Workforce, established under the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2022, regularly incorporate findings and conclusions from the primary prevention research agenda into its work.
