In 1994, the same year @JoeBiden was co-sponsoring the Violence Against Women Act, Donald Trump was telling men to "be rougher" with their wives, and said he would go "through the roof" when he came home and dinner wasn& #39;t ready. https://www.vox.com/2016/6/2/11833912/donald-trump-1994-women-buildings-misogyny">https://www.vox.com/2016/6/2/...

Now, in 2020, VAWA has expired and a reauthorization that passed the House is still sitting on @senatemajldr& #39;s desk because the @NRA opposes a provision that would prevent convicted stalkers and dating partners from buying guns. https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/nra-violence-against-women-act-814295/">https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/...

Meanwhile, due to the coronavirus crisis, women are isolated with their abusers, and the Trump administration is doing everything it can to ensure easier access to guns, including a recommendation that states consider gun stores "essential businesses." https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/06/world/coronavirus-domestic-violence.html">https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/0...

There were record gun sales in March (thanks to the @NRA& #39;s fear mongering) and federal law allows licensed dealers to sell a gun after 3 days without a background check. The backlog of guns needing to be checked means guns may be sold to domestic abusers. https://vtdigger.org/2020/04/03/vermont-gun-background-checks-hit-record-high-in-march-%EF%BB%BF/">https://vtdigger.org/2020/04/0...

Over 50 American women are shot and killed every month in America by current or former intimate partners. The Trump administration not only won& #39;t protect us - they& #39;re purposefully endangering us.

That& #39;s why @MomsDemand supports @JoeBiden for President - our lives depend on it.
