Angelina Jolie went to Capitol Hill to talk about Violence Against Women Act

Angelina Jolie went to Capitol Hill to talk about Violence Against Women Act. She also brought along her daughter Zahara. During her speech, she got emotional.

She voiced out, 'Most of all, I want to acknowledge - most of all, I want to acknowledge the children who are terrified and suffering at this moment,' she said, her voice cracking. 'And the many people for whom this legislation comes too late.'

'The women who have suffered through this system with little or no support, they still carry the pain and trauma of their abuse. The young adults who have survived abuse and emerged stronger not because of the child protective system, but despite it.'

'And the women and children who have died, who could have been saved,' she said.
