re: #50 Dark_Falcon

One very prominent GOP male Senator voted for the extension: That man was John McCain. The DNC graphic only listed the GOP men who voted ‘no’ and the women who voted yes, it did not show the GOP men who voted ‘yes’.

Because there were so bloody few of them, perhaps? So few that it in no way negates the misogynist douchebaggery of the House GOP?

The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) is facing another struggle to stay intact, this time in the House of Representatives. The House GOP looks likely to rewrite the domestic violence prevention bill, which passed the Senate last week, with the aim of stripping provisions for Native Americans, undocumented people, and the LGBT community — the same provisions that Senate Republicans tried to remove from the bill.
