McConnell’s GOP Opponent Matt Bevin Opposes Violence Against Women Act | Talking Points Memo

“I think the Violence Against Women Act — first of all, I don’t know anyone who is a proponent of violence against women,” Bevin said. “But there are certain provisions in the latest VAWA that were attempting to broaden it so it wasn’t just women. And there is a way to go about these things. My biggest issue is there are certain portions of that Act that are unconstitutional, and fly in the face of constitutional precedent. Trying to fix a problem with another problem is not a solution. And that is the case here.”
