"I appreciate that. Chair Bass, I thank you for holding this hearing today and share your belief that the reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act is critical."

"That is why we need to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act and make sure it is working and focusing on those it was intended to help."

"This radical legislation stands no chance of becoming law, and is merely evidence of the majority's regrettable intent to weaponize this important piece of legislation to score political points."

"The Violence Against Women Act was first signed into law in 1994, when the domestic violence was largely considered a hidden crime."
