Bill Package to Better Protect Domestic Violence Victims

A legislative package by both Ortitay and Lindsay Powell (D-Allegheny) was recently announced to offer domestic violence victims further protections, enhance offender accountability, and better prevent repeat and escalating violence in response to a man almost murdering his wife in 2022. By combining preventative monitoring tools with meaningful financial accountability and victim financial assistance, this legislative package seeks to close dangerous gaps in current law and send an unmistakable message that Pennsylvania’s legal system will not empower domestic abusers.
