Bill overview
This bill aims to support states in establishing legal protections for survivors of sexual assault. It directs the Department of Justice to provide grants to states that already have laws guaranteeing these rights, aligning with federal standards. The grants are based on a percentage of the state’s previous funding from the STOP Violence Against Women Formula Grant Program. This legislation seeks to improve legal support and resources for survivors across the country.
