This is a really good law that was passed, and thank you for any part that you had in it. I really do thank you.

What I think I would like expressed here also, is that this law will not help you, until or unless women or men start to press charges for DV.

DV is still not taken serious in the courts, and most times it's a night in jail, while your wife may be in the hospital, then a day in court, where the judge says go to classes for 6 months, then go back to court, and all charges are dismissed.

I totally agree that a lot of times you need to call DV, go to a shelter, and get away safely.

That person that you are living with, the person you love......... you really never know what they are capable of.
