The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) is critical to helping ensure that victims of domestic violence, stalking, and sexual assault are protected and have access to needed services. That’s why I’m so disgusted that Republicans in the Senate stripped out critical provisions that I added just this year, provisions that we worked hard to pass through the House. These critical positions would safeguard women against gun violence from abusers, protect Native women, and stop discrimination against LGBTQ victims of abuse. We need to stand together and tell Republicans to stop playing political games with the lives of domestic violence victims. Add your name here to demand that the Senate pass a robust version of VAWA instead of gutting it in favor of their prejudiced views and the NRA! DEFEND WOMEN I’ve worked on this issue for years and I’m proud of the bill House Democrats passed this spring. There is a Senate version that mirrors our legislation, but Republicans are choosing to put their biased views and the NRA’s political interests over protecting women from harm instead of moving forward. They should be ashamed of themselves. Stand against Republican attempts to gut protections for the most vulnerable in the Violence Against Women Act → Thank you for all that you do.
