Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives with respect to the

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 
JULY 25, 2005 
Mrs. CAPPS (for herself and Mr. NADLER) submitted the following resolution; 
which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary 
RESOLUTION 
Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives with 
respect to the enforcement of restraining orders. 
Whereas nearly one-third of American women report being 
physically or sexually abused by a boyfriend or husband 
at some point in their lives; 
Whereas intimate partner violence tends to be a pattern, 
rather than a one-time occurrence; 
Whereas domestic homicide is often the result of continuing 
abuse; 
Whereas restraining orders are necessary to protect victims 
of violence from further abuse and decrease the risk of 
continuing abuse or homicide; 
Whereas nearly half of all victims who obtain restraining or-
ders are abused again;
•HRES 382 IH 
Whereas restraining orders exist to protect victims of domes-
tic violence, sexual assault, stalking, and dating violence 
and include explicit instructions that violation of such or-
ders are cause for arrest; 
Whereas law enforcement officials are directed to use every 
reasonable means to enforce a restraining order; 
Whereas the Supreme Court’s recent decision in Castle Rock 
v. Gonzales narrowed individuals’ Federal court recourse 
against police for failing to enforce a restraining order; 
and 
Whereas this decision highlights the need to better protect 
victims of domestic violence from violators of restraining 
orders: Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Rep-
resentatives that Congress should act and encourage 
States to act— 
(1) to ensure that restraining orders are uni-
formly enforced; and 
(2) to protect victims of domestic violence, sex-
ual assault, stalking, and dating violence from per-
petrators. 
Æ
(i) assess on an ongoing basis the 
service needs of residents; 
(ii) coordinate the provision of sup-
portive services and tailor such services to 
the individual needs of residents; and 
(iii) seek on a continuous basis new 
sources of assistance to ensure the long- 
term provision of supportive services. 
(B) CLASSIFICATION OF COSTS.—Any cost 
associated with this subsection shall be an eligi-
ble cost under subsections (c)(3). 
(i) DEVELOPMENT COST LIMITATIONS.— 
(1) IN GENERAL.—The Secretary shall periodi-
cally establish development cost limitations by mar-
ket area for various types and sizes of supportive 
housing for very low-income veteran families by pub-
lishing a notice of the cost limitations in the Federal 
Register. 
(2) CONSIDERATIONS.—The cost limitations es-
tablished under paragraph (1) shall reflect— 
(A) the cost of construction, reconstruc-
tion, or moderate or substantial rehabilitation 
of supportive housing for very low-income vet-
eran families that meets applicable State and 
local housing and building codes;
