AGs Call for Changes to Combat Abuse and Harassment in Women’s Pro Soccer
Illinois AG Kwame Raoul and New York AG Letitia James wrote a letter to the Commissioner of the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL), as well as the CEO and President of the U.S. Soccer Federation (U.S. Soccer), expressing alarm over the conclusions of an independent investigation into the organizations that was conducted by King & Spalding. The recently released investigative report alleges incidents of sexual misconduct, harassment, and abuse by coaches in the NWSL that were not addressed by either the NWSL or U.S. Soccer when brought to their attention.
