More than 1 in 3 Hispanic women have experienced intimate partner violence, and the vast majority of Hispanic female homicides were committed by intimate partners, with nearly half involving firearms.
The intersection of gun violence and domestic violence must be addressed.

In today’s House Judiciary hearing, Congresswoman Madeleine Dean asked survivor Ruth Glenn (she/hers) #survivorspeaks, what US v Rahimi—a case that could give domestic abusers access to guns, meant to her.

Her response: “How come I’m not protected from the very thing that will cause me harm, which is the firearm.”

Existing loopholes in federal and state law allow access to guns by abusive partners and stalkers, often with deadly results. The evidence is clear: Common-sense laws that keep guns out of the hands of abusive partners reduce gun violence and domestic violence.

Today we honor the legacy of Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor on the occasion of her passing. O’Connor was the first woman to serve on the Supreme Court and paved the way for other women to follow in her footsteps.
