Access to a gun makes it five times more likely that a woman will die at the hands of a domestic abuser, and every month, 70 women are shot and killed by an intimate partner.

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.”
Today, our Survivor Justice Action President, Ruth Glenn (she/hers) #survivorspeaks, fearlessly addressed the House Judiciary Committee, highlighting the stark reality: the presence of a gun makes it 5x more likely for a woman to be killed by an abusive partner. Let's mobilize for change. #EndDVNow
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. #SandraDayOConnor #SupremeCourtJustice
