Funding Victory in the House!
The Appropriations Committee's
Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services and Education
(LHHS) in the House of Representatives voted yesterday to
increase funding for the Family Violence Prevention
and Services Act by $10 million (from $124.7 to
$134.7 million).
The proposed increase to $134.7
million is exciting because a percentage of that money would
be dedicated for direct services to children exposed to
violence.
The LHHS appropriations bill will
go to the full House Appropriations Committee and then to the
floor for debates and votes. The Senate will go through the
same process, then the two bills have to be rectified and
signed by the President.
Stay tuned for more
information.
