Protect Women from Domestic Violence

Mike Crapo stands to protect women from domestic violence.  

The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) strengthens programs and policies meant to prevent domestic and sexual violence and protect victims, ensuring continued services for victims of domestic violence and sexual assault.

Sadly, Idaho has already seen four deaths this year in 2016 linked to domestic violence, but national statistics show the VAWA is working to reduce domestic crimes by a third. Those four lives in Idaho further prove the importance of having this act in place.

“If just one life is saved because of VAWA, then our work has been worth it.  We must continue to advocate for the victims and agencies that assist those hurt by domestic and sexual abuse.  While the signing of VAWA will help save countless lives, we need to ensure we continue to have the most up-to-date protections to stop this violence in place.” – Mike Crapo
