Many advocates for women are worried that the comments made by Vice President-elect JD Vance during the campaign could jeopardize the availability of no-fault divorce, which many see as crucial for domestic abuse victims and necessary to keep family courts from becoming overwhelmed.
JD Vance argued during a speech that the ease of divorce leads to significant family dysfunction and contributes to the unhappiness of children, suggesting a reconsideration of the current policies around marital separations.
While there may be some discussion about making divorce harder to obtain, there is currently no widespread campaign advocating for such changes, and state-by-state control means drastic shifts are unlikely.
Despite concerns raised by advocates, experts like Mark A. Smith suggest that Americans are largely accustomed to the option of no-fault divorce and doubt any immediate, significant changes in divorce laws.
