Representative Glenn Ivey (D-MD) introduced a $5 million amendment to the Legal Assistance for Victims OVW grant program in a House CJS Appropriations Committee hearing last week. We're thrilled the amendment passed by a voice vote - this funding would help survivors in Maryland and across the country access support, healing, and justice.
THANK YOU Rep. Ivey for your continued advocacy for survivors of sexual violence! On to the Senate!
