Overall, I am relieved this passed and they are the minority. Just pitiful though.

Now, it is up to the house as to decide whether or not this Violence Against Women Act...(which by the way Biden started in 94') ...becomes law again.

All that voted against the bill are Repbulicans. I suspect we have republican members here at the Planet. It must be somewhat difficult to see their party consistently put the needs of women lower on the priority list. I see Rubio one of the new Golden Boys of the GOP is all down for immigration reform but not protecting women against violence. I can't help but wonder what is their justification for voting against this bill. Probably something like "We all ready have laws on the book that covers this. These laws just need to be enforced."
