The Crime Victims Fund (#CVFSA) funds services that support survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, trafficking, and more. The CVF is low, & the US Senate must act! #SustainVictimServices

Thank you Gov Healey for continuing to protect and support survivors across Massachusetts!
As a former prosecutor and attorney general, I’ve seen the courage it takes for survivors to come forward. I’ve also seen what happens when our laws fail them.
Today, that’s changing.
We’re closing a loophole that let trusted adults avoid accountability for preying on 16- and 17-year-olds. And we’re eliminating the statute of limitations in rape cases when new DNA evidence identifies the offender.
To every survivor who spoke out and fought for this change, and the Legislators who helped get this to my desk: thank you.

April is Crime Victims’ Rights Month, and all of us — community partners, nonprofit organizations, and government agencies — must continue working together to strengthen prevention efforts, safety nets, and support systems in every community.
I’m glad to work alongside MOVA to provide the support survivors need, with the ultimate goal of ending violence entirely.
