Mark Begich: “I thought your answer was going to be yes. Good. Thank you very much.”

We specifically extend our appreciation to Senator Murkowski and Senator Begich for their support and efforts to repeal the Alaska exception of the Violence Against Women Act.

Thank you for your work and efforts to repeal Section 910 of the Violence Against Women Act.

I want to make sure my colleagues hear exactly what you are saying, so a couple years from now, we do not hear complaints that, geez, why did you not do it?

Just assuming the private sector is going to absorb all this is not realistic.
