It should expire. Protection of violence for ONLY Women? Excuse me but there's like.. at least 60 genders that are not protected against violence in this law!

The GOP wants to rename it the Violence Against Property Act.

Republicans want the Violence Against Women Act to expire. Women, esp women of color & minorities, are targets of GOP, particularly w/regard to removing healthcare protections. 54 days! Historic turnout needed to begin undoing harm R's have inflicted on US.
