I'm pretty sure all women are people and unnecessary violence against people is already against the law, so we're covered.
More laws is not the answer.
So they might not need sheltering from abusive spouses, and small communities might not need grant money to provide that sheltering? I suggest you read the bill. You can find the text at the link I provided upthread. This is not a federal law against abusing your partner. It's a public law to provide services to the abused and training for counselors, police, and parole officials.
Why did Democrats have to dick with it then? Why do they hate women?
