The Congressional Research Service has recently issued a report that explains everything you want to know about funding levels and trends for the Violence Against Women Act.

The title of the report is Violence Against Women Act: History and Federal Funding, by Garrine P. Lany. The report can be found here:

Here’s the email of the author, if you have any questions: glaney@crs.loc.gov .
And you might want to ask Laney why the report constantly uses the phrase “violence against women,” when it obviously should refer to “violence against men and women.”
