Today's Heritage Scorecard: Does House GOP Support Gutting the Violence Against Women Act?
This morning, Budget Committee Chairman Tom Price failed to present a promised budget to the Republican Conference. But luckily for Republicans, the Heritage Foundation has already provided rudderless House GOP leaders with a budget blueprint. Now, as House Republicans race against the clock to pack these extreme, Heritage-backed ideas into their own supposedly forthcoming budget resolution, here's a time-saver: House Republicans can score themselves on the Heritage Budget by answering some simple questions.
Question: Do House Republicans support ending Violence Against Women Act Grants to reduce and prevent domestic violence, like the Heritage Budget does?
Yes. I, House Republican, stand with the at least 138 House GOP Members who support Heritage's plan to gut the Violence Against Women Act.No. I stand with House Democrats who are working to protect the Violence Against Women Act.
No. I stand with House Democrats who are working to protect the Violence Against Women Act.
House Republicans: if you answered YESto the question of whether you support eliminating Violence Against Women Act grants, you're safe with the Heritage Foundation. But you can trust that the American people will score you differently.
