In 1994, the Senate first passed the Violence Against Women Act — legislation designed to protect women from domestic violence.
Since its original passage, it has been reauthorized with bipartisan support many times, including earlier this year.
Now, Senate must protect the 1 in 4 women that experience severe intimate partner physical violence. Please sign this petition to urge the Senate to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act. →

In the 27 years of its existence, the Violence Against Women Act has led to billions of dollars in grants to fund programs that help prevent violence and care for survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and dating violence.
This legislation has saved lives.
If you agree, please sign this petition to urge the Senate to pass the Violence Against Women Act immediately. →
