To: The United States House of Representatives
Pass VAWA now!
Dear Leaders of the House:
We have seen the good that the Violence Against Women Act has done for women and families across the country.
The reauthorization of VAWA before the House right now will expand these vital protections even further.
There is no reason to delay this vital reauthorization — we the undersigned urge you to pass VAWA immediately!

Why is this important?
The Violence Against Women Act has been incredibly effective in decreasing domestic violence in the United States. Yet there are still women killed every day by their husbands or boyfriends. Countless women still live in fear of abuse, and one in five have been victims of rape. The House should follow the Senate’s lead and pass the Violence Against Women Act right away.
