Democratic candidate Barack Obama announced Sen. Joe Biden as his vice presidential pick. We can thank Sen. Biden for all the broken families, FALSELY ACCUSED AMERICANS, heartbroken dads, and kids in single-parent homes caused by the Violence Against Women Act. This is a wake up call! Fix VAWA now!

->The Heritage Foundation Conference
->This conference, titled "The Conflict between Federal Domestic Violence Policies and Traditional Family Values", was held in Washington, DC and was a huge success! There were approximately sixty people in attendance, and featured speakers discussed a variety of topics. The common thread in all these topics was how they are impacted by VAWA. We learned that federal domestic violence policies conflict with traditional family values. We also learned how VAWA conflicts with the responsible use of taxpayer funds, fundamental notions of due process, the welfare of children, African-American communities, the integrity of US immigration policy, sound foreign policy, and even with our national security. Most of the groups that were represented at this conference are joining forces to form a coalition to push for VAWA reform.

Friday, June 6, 2008
->Lobbying Event on Capitol Hill
->Representatives from Voice of American Immigration Fraud Victims teamed with the RADAR lobbying team and took the U.S. House of Representatives by storm. We distributed a flyer to Stop H.R. 6088, the so-called National DV Volunteer Attorney Network Act, the $55 million boondoggle that will give free legal services to every false domestic violence accuser across the country. We distributed the flyer to almost all of the 425 members of the House, held 3 sit down meetings, and had 6 other impromptu meetings. We were fortunate to be able to link our agenda to reform VAWA with RADAR's agenda. Our main message: Our Current Approach to Stopping Domestic Violence is Proving to be a Costly Failure.
