From Bold Nebraska's Chelsea Johnson:
Stand for Women, Sen. Fischer: The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) was passed in 1994, and has been “extraordinarily effective” in combating domestic violence. It provides funding to state and local officials for “legal assistance, transitional housing, law enforcement training, stalker databases, and domestic violence hotlines.” It expired in 2011 when it failed to pass the House despite a strong bi-partisan showing of support in the Senate, and has been taken up again today for another shot at re-authorization. Without re-authorization, programs under the act are still in place, but cannot be expanded or improved. The legislation would broaden its coverage to ensure that Native Americans, gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgender people have access to anti-abuse programs. Nineteen of the twenty women in the Senate are co-sponsors of the bill. The lone woman who is not a co-sponsor, and may not even support the bill, is our newly elected Senator, Deb Fischer. We do not know why she (or anyone, for that matter) would be against this bill, and hope that she ends up supporting the VAWA as domestic violence is a major issue across the U.S. and in Nebraska, and expansion of it is beyond critical for the protection of ALL women.
