By Stacey Tallitsch | August 11, 2026 Congress spent the summer fighting over how to fund the Violence Against Women Act. The Senate wants roughly $720 million, the House around $640 million, and advocates are warning that nearly $200 million in already-appropriated money is sitting undistributed.

By Stacey Tallitsch | July 27, 2026 Walk past the encampment near the Intrepid in Manhattan, the tents that have New Yorkers turning on Mayor Mamdani, the sweeps North Carolina just voted to authorize, the count in Los Angeles that climbed another 7.9% this year. Look at who is actually
