Via email from an activist:
As a result of all our efforts and the attached letter signed by 25, this morning all 8 GOP senators voted 'no' on Sen. Leahy's VAWA reauthorization bill. The aura of VAWA enjoying full bipartisan support has been broken. Now, passage is of VAWA is no longer a foregone conclusion.
Needless to say, NOW is fuming right now.
Although we still have a lot of work to do, CONGRATULATIONS AND THANKS TO ALL.
