Content Warning: This email discusses domestic violence



It was just about a year ago that I stood on the floor of the House and
shared my mother’s story. I shared how she suffered violence at the hands
of a man who claimed her loved her. How, on any given day, she was beaten
for being too pretty, too ugly, too smart, too dumb.

In the midst of the current crisis, survivors of sexual and domestic
violence are at even greater risk, too often isolated in unsafe
situations. It’s more important than ever that they know they are not
alone.

It is unconscionable that the Republican majority Senate has refused to
reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act — life-saving legislation has
helped countless survivors since it originally passed in 1994.

[ [link removed] ]I am calling on the Senate and Mitch McConnell to finally reauthorize
the Violence Against Women Act, so we can offer more protections and
support to survivors. Will you add your name to join me?
