什么是对妇女的暴力法案？(the violence against women act?)
暴力侵害妇女法》（VAWA）是由美国总统比尔-克林顿于1994年签署的立法，最初成为法律。VAWA旨在解决性攻击、家庭暴力和跟踪骚扰等事件。该法案包括保护性法律和建立赠款和计划，旨在减少美国（U.S.）境内此类犯罪的发生，并解决受害妇女的需求。自最初颁布以来，《暴力侵害妇女法》在必要时进行了更新和重新授权。
对妇女的暴力会对家庭产生长期影响。人们还认为，这种暴力会产生一些更广泛的社会后果。暴力侵害妇女法》是联邦政府对这一问题的回应。
这项立法旨在证明联邦政府认识到，对妇女的暴力行为往往涉及独特的情况，并带来独特的挑战，如果没有联邦干预，司法系统可能无法充分处理。联邦的参与使妇女的利益得到了满足，否则可能无法实现。例如，联邦法律提高了刑事司法系统执行保护令的能力，这些保护令曾经受到管辖权规则的阻碍。
自颁布以来，《对妇女的暴力行为法》得到了更新和逐步改进。主要的改进包括立法中专门针对比原始版本更广泛的受害者的需求的部分。这包括针对移民和残疾妇女的暴力。
美国司法部有一个暴力侵害妇女问题办公室（OVW）。该办公室负责执行《对妇女暴力法》。这是通过制定旨在减少对妇女的暴力和满足受害者需求的政策和方案来实现的。暴力侵害妇女办公室还向目标与《暴力侵害妇女法》相一致的社区工作发放补助金并提供技术援助。
根据《暴力侵害妇女法》设立了十几项赠款。这些赠款一般都集中在特定领域，人们认为这些资金可以促进该法的目标。鼓励逮捕政策和执行保护令方案的赠款向政府提供资金，以激励它们认真对待对妇女的暴力行为，并帮助建立一个协调的努力。对印第安部落政府的补助金方案提供资金，旨在帮助部落解决其社区内对妇女的暴力行为。
