Mr. President, I am pleased that the Senate is passing the Violence Against Women Act of 2005, VAWA. This act is the backbone of our country's fight against domestic violence and sexual assault, and its passage could not be more timely, as October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

Harry Reid
Sadly, domestic violence remains one the most common violent crimes in the United States. In fact, the American Psychological Association estimates that one in three women will experience a physical assault by an intimate partner during adulthood. While Congress has taken steps to curb domestic violence, significant progress must still be made to ensure that women and children are safe in their homes.

I am from one of the fastest growing States in the Nation, and Nevada's rapid growth poses a unique set of challenges in dealing with the increasing levels of domestic and family violence; however, progress is being made. According to the Violence Policy Center, Nevada ranks second in the Nation for the number of murders of women by men. Almost all of these women knew the perpetrator, and in most cases, it was a husband or boyfriend. In 2004, domestic service providers in Nevada aided more than 25,000 primary victims of domestic violence. These services were made possible because of legislation such as VAWA.

Originally enacted in 1994, VAWA was the beginning of a national commitment to the victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. We continued the commitment in 2000 with the first reauthorization of VAWA which added much needed provisions for victims of rape, violence on college campuses, elder abuse, stalking, legal assistance in civil cases, and transitional housing for victims. I am pleased that the 2005 reauthorization of VAWA will address the needs of immigrants, Native Americans, children, and youth. Since the act's original passage, our commitment has yielded extraordinary progress nationwide. Domestic violence has dropped by almost 50 percent. Incidents of rape are down by 60 percent. The number of women killed by an abusive husband or boyfriend is down by 22 percent, and more than half of all rape victims are stepping forward to report the crime. Additionally, over a million women have found justice in our courtrooms and obtained domestic violence protective orders.

I must, however, make clear my dismay at the last-minute inclusion of a controversial and ill-advised amendment to this legislation allowing for the collection of DNA evidence from people who are arrested or detained. I believe authorizing the collection of DNA evidence without probable cause is an invitation to racial profiling, infringes on privacy rights, and may well be unconstitutional. This provision has no place in this important legislation, and I would urge in the strongest terms that it be removed in conference.

Despite the incredible strides made to end domestic violence, there is still much work to be done. We cannot lose sight of the horror which so many victims experience every day, but which rarely appears on network news. Domestic Violence Awareness Month is an opportunity to raise that awareness. It is especially important to recognize the tragedy that is domestic violence in the aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Many domestic violence shelters and rape crisis centers in the gulf coast region were destroyed by these storms. For this reason, I worked to obtain an additional $9 million in the Senate's Justice Department appropriations bill. It is my hope that these funds will be included in conference and will not only rebuild the damaged facilities but will aid the coalitions that work every day to end domestic and sexual violence and will prove our commitment to their cause.

This legislation addresses the housing crisis that currently exists for victims fleeing their homes, provides more economic stability for victims by taking measures to improve their employment, and creates initiatives to educate and prevent domestic violence from occurring in the first place. The Senate's unanimous passage today of VAWA 2005 demonstrates the Senate's commitment to this important quest.

Mr. President, because the Violence Against Women Act authorization expires today, it is necessary that we pass legislation to reauthorize this bill immediately. As a result, the Senate does not have an opportunity to debate and vote on all the amendments that Senators may wish to offer to this bill.

One such amendment that the Senator from Oklahoma, Dr. Coburn, had intended to offer would address the issue of HIV and sexual assault and seek greater testing for HIV disease among sexual assault defendants.

As a practicing physician, I am deeply concerned about both the physical and emotional well-being of those who have been traumatized by rape and sexual assault. That is why I believe that it is necessary for the reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act to include timely HIV tests of those accused of rape and sexual assault.

There are countless stories of women and children who have been victims of rape and sexual assault who have been denied access to this potentially life-saving information. In some circumstances, rape defendants have even used HIV status information as a plea bargaining tool to reduce their sentences.

Treatment with AIDS drugs immediately following exposure to HIV can significantly reduce the chance of infection. However, because of the toxicity and long-term side effects, these drugs should not be administered without first knowing if HIV exposure has occurred. Victims cannot rely solely on testing themselves because it can take weeks, sometimes months, before HIV antibodies can be detected, Therefore, testing the assailant is the only timely manner in which to determine if someone has been exposed to HIV.

The American Medical Association, AMA, supports this policy because "early knowledge that a defendant is HIV infected would allow the victim to gain access to the ever growing arsenal of new HIV treatment options. In addition, knowing that the defendant was HIV infected would help the victim avoid contact which might put others at risk of infection." In addition to the AMA, groups such as the Children's AIDS Fund and Women Against Violence support this policy.

The Omnibus Crime Control Act of 1994 already allows victims to request a court order to have alleged perpetrators tested for HIV only in Federal assault cases. In October 2000, the House of Representatives overwhelmingly approved a bill, 380 to 19, that would have provided this right and protection to all those who were the victims of sexual assault, but, unfortunately, the Senate never took up this bill. But now is our chance.

It would be a cruel hoax if the Senate approved the Violence Against Women Act of 2005 without including this amendment that ensures those women who have already been victimized by sexual assault are not further victimized by our legal system and HIV/AIDS.

I propose an amendment that would reduce the overall amount of funding under this act for a State or local government by 10 percent unless the State or local government demonstrates that with respect to a defendant against whom an information or indictment is presented for a crime in which by force or threat of force the perpetrator compels the victim to engage in sexual activity, that the defendant be tested for HIV disease if the nature of the alleged crime is such that the sexual activity would have placed the victim at risk of becoming infected with HIV; and the victim requests that the defendant be so tested. The defendant must undergo the test not later than 48 hours after the date on which the information or indictment is presented, and that as soon thereafter as is practicable the results of the test are made available to the victim.

My initiative would not force States to provide this protection, but simply reward those States that do. This right, in fact, already exists in some States but too many women and children are still denied this information that could literally be the difference between life and death.

Do I understand from the Senator from Delaware that constitutional language, ensuring that indicted perpetrators of sexual assault, who have placed the victim at risk of becoming infected with HIV disease, are tested for HIV disease, will be included in the final legislative language agreed upon by the House and Senate conference?

I would also like to recognize the tireless efforts of Deidre Raver of New York who was raped at the age of 19 and has been an effective and compassionate advocate for other survivors of sexual assault. Earlier this month, DNA evidence linked a man on death row in California to the 1988 murder of Deidre's sister, Rachel. My thoughts and prayers are with Deidre and her family at this time and I am hopeful that this discovery will finally bring some closure to her family's long ordeal.
