The Silence Abuse Bill
Bill bans ndas that silence abuse victims
TREY'S Law Terminating Restrictive Enforcement of Youth Settlements Law
Good for everyday people ·
If passed, the bill would stop courts from enforcing contracts that keep victims of child sexual abuse from talking about what happened.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
The bill would let survivors speak out without fear of breaking a settlement, giving them a voice and possibly more justice; now is the time to support it before it stalls.
