Summary
The bill would let survivors of child sexual abuse or abuse of people with developmental disabilities sue the state, its agencies, and political subdivisions for damages. It removes sovereign immunity and the procedural limits of existing tort‑claims acts, allowing civil actions even without a criminal prosecution. The goal is to give victims a direct path to compensation.
