'To address these shortcomings, Stop Abusive and Violent Environments has developed the Partner Violence Reduction Act, which amends and strengthens the current Violence Against Women Act (6).
"The New York Times editorial calls on Republican lawmakers to 'explain to voters why they refuse to get behind the federal fight against domestic violence and sexual assaults.' But victims of domestic violence are demanding that Times editorialists go beyond partisan posturing, and ask why so many VAWA programs aren't meeting basic expectations of accountability and effectiveness," according to SAVE spokesman Philip W. Cook.'
