Native America Calling - Monday, February 23, 2026 – Assessing the outlook for domestic violence prevention

Congress just approved significant funding increases going forward for a handful of core domestic violence funding and policy initiatives. But at the same time, many services for survivors face a new level of unpredictability. Victim support funds in some states plummeted as much as 70%, leaving states to try and cover some of those costs. The Trump administration instituted requirements that domestic violence survivors prove their immigration status before being allowed into shelters and certain long-time domestic violence services remain a target in upcoming federal budget talks. We’ll get a picture of the current trends for domestic violence prevention.

We discuss what that means companies, consumers, and the U.S.’s global trading partners. Plus, new analysis from the CATO Institute finds that the presence of immigrants helps to ease the federal budget deficit.
