Over 20,000 men are arrested each year for beating up 20,000 families. This grim statistic is not just a set of numbers, but a stark reminder of the countless lives that suffer in silence, caught in the vicious cycle of domestic violence. For families, including mine, this is a harsh reality that we cannot afford to ignore any longer. The issue lies deeper than these shocking arrest numbers—it's about the many policy gaps that leave victims without adequate protection or resources.

ABC News, with its vast reach and impact, can play a crucial role in bringing these stories to the forefront of national attention. By dedicating a weekly segment to exploring policy gaps and sharing survivor stories, ABC News can not only highlight these persistent issues but also inform and educate the public and policymakers about necessary changes.

A weekly feature would provide ongoing visibility for this dire issue, shedding light on the systemic flaws that allow such violence to continue. Through survivor narratives, ABC News can showcase the resilience and courage of those affected while driving home the urgent need for change.

The media has the power to shape public discourse and influence legislative reform. It's time for ABC News to step up and become a champion for domestic violence awareness and policy reform. Let's hold our media accountable for giving voice to the voiceless and effecting positive change in our communities.

Join me in urging ABC News to commit to this critical cause. Together, we can make a difference and help create a society where domestic violence is not just covered sporadically but addressed as the urgent issue it is. Please sign this petition to encourage ABC News to make weekly domestic violence coverage a reality.
