Too many teens are struggling in unhealthy dating relationships and don't know where to turn for help.
I'm leading a bipartisan resolution today to designate February as "Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention Month" to promote the importance of healthy relationships.

Raising awareness about how to recognize dating violence and the resources that are out there to help teens is essential to support those who face this kind of abuse.
Thank you , , and for co-leading this bipartisan resolution with me.
