Washington D.C.—Today, Congresswoman Deborah Ross (D-NC) led Representatives Eric Swalwell (D-CA), Guy Reschenthaler (R-PA), and Maria Elvira Salazar (R-FL) in introducing the Eliminating Limits to Justice for Child Sex Abuse Victims Act, which will ensure that survivors of child sex abuse are able to seek justice under the federal civil remedy statute, 18 U.S.C. § 2255, without being barred by statutes of limitations. The bipartisan legislation will enable survivors who were victims of over a dozen federal child sex abuse offenses to seek civil damages in federal court no matter how long it has taken the survivor to process and disclose the abuse they suffered. The Senate version of the bill was introduced by Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-IL) and Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) and passed by unanimous consent in March of this year.
