There are no political agendas here, but rather a human agenda. The newly installed administration just announced plans to eradicate the Department of Justice’s Violence Against Women programs. The President intends upon signing executive orders and begin cutting funding for hundreds of local rape crisis centers, the National Domestic Violence Hotline — which has served almost 4 million people — and sexual assault response training for hundreds of thousands of law enforcement officials.

Please ensure that programs like this remain in place. Without them, women’s rights will continue to erode. It has become obvious in this nation that the law is not blind when it comes to punishing individuals for sexual violence. Without programs like this, I don’t know what would happen. This is truly an issue of human decency and we, the people, have the power to avoid our current leader from making bad decisions for our government and our people.

Please consider signing a petition to Congress to stop this from happening.
