History

Historical Context

In 1994 President Bill Clinton signed the Violence Against Women Act, allocating $1.6 billion for shelters, legal aid and the Office on Violence Against Women. The act’s stalking provisions, upheld by the 2024 Supreme Court’s United States v. Rahimi decision banning firearms for those under restraining orders, empower police to arrest and refer abusers. Rulla’s 2024 no-contact order after a GPS-tracker incident relies on that framework.
