Take Action on VAWA

The 112th Congress failed to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act, in part because of its new protections for Native women, which apparently was a sticking point for House Republicans. A new version of the bill, which preserves the protections for Native women, will be voted on in the Senate as early as next week. The National Congress of American Indians have a number of ways you can support the bill.
