Breaking: The Violence Against Women Act has passed

Today the House of Representatives reauthorized the Violence Against Women’s Act – a version which includes provisions specific to college students, native American women, LGBT people and immigrant women. VAWA covers a lot of territory. Some of its most known benefits include funding for shelters and programs to prevent domestic violence. Now the bill is off to the President to sign and become law, so take a minute to celebrate all your hard work in making this a reality!
