Larsen says the bill would expand protection to Native American women, immigrants and LGBT victims.
The expansion has been a sticking point in passing the bill that was rejected late last year.
Larsen co-sponsored the original House version of the bill and believes the bill has a good chance of passing the House this time.
Larsen has held a series of discussions in the last year and met with advocates for domestic violence victims throughout the district, including Bellingham.
