In a recent government meeting, Senator Cotton introduced Brandy Moore White, the national president of the Council of Prison Locals, a union representing approximately 30,000 correctional officers and staff. White, who previously served as the organization's national secretary treasurer for six years, traveled from Arkansas to provide testimony on critical issues surrounding sexual abuse in prisons.

Senator Cotton emphasized the importance of White's insights, noting that the topic of sexual abuse in correctional facilities has not received adequate attention. He acknowledged her frequent contributions to Senate discussions, highlighting her commitment to advocating for the rights and safety of correctional staff and inmates alike.

The meeting also featured Kelsey Bowler as the final witness, although further details regarding her testimony were not provided in the transcript. The discussions are expected to shed light on the pressing need for reforms and increased awareness regarding sexual abuse within the prison system.
