Through this resolution, Congressman Green, along with 141 of his colleagues, calls on Congress to support programs that work to end domestic violence and protect both female and male victims. 

Congressman Al Green stated, “Domestic violence is a national crisis; we cannot force survivors to suffer in silence or permit the systems meant to protect them to falter. As a nation, we have both a moral and constitutional duty to ensure every person’s right to safety, dignity, and justice. By recognizing October as National Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we are taking a stand to strengthen federal protections, expand survivor resources, and hold abusers accountable. America must lead with compassion, legislate with conviction, and act with courage to end domestic violence.”
