Cynthia Davis: Violence Against Women Act a "war on marriage"
As the chair of the St. Charles County Republican Committee, Davis reclaimed a bit of the Internet today to condemn the Violence Against Women Act. The federal law allows for greater prosecution of violent crimes committed against women, including domestic abuse, sexual assault, and stalking. Davis calls it the "war on marriage."

"VAWA is often misused to unilaterally take over families, destroy marriages and dole out extensive welfare entitlements, housing guarantees, and immigration guarantees simply on unverified statements of fear." -Ex-Missouri state Rep Cynthia Davis

Yes this is the same lady that thought hunger was an appropriate motivator for recipients of school lunches.

3. This is the woman who stated:
Who’s buying dinner? Who is getting paid to serve the meal? Churches and other non-profits can do this at no cost to the taxpayer if it is warranted. <...> Bigger governmental programs take away our connectedness to the human family, our brotherhood and our need for one another. <...> Anyone under 18 can be eligible? Can’t they get a job during the summer by the time they are 16? Hunger can be a positive motivator. What is wrong with the idea of getting a job so you can get better meals? Tip: If you work for McDonald’s, they will feed you for free during your break. <...> It really is all about increasing government spending, which means an increase in taxes for us to buy more free lunches and breakfasts.
