Thrilled to share that this afternoon, Gov @GlennYoungkin signed VA HB268 into law! The legislation helps keep child sex trafficking victims who are accused of harming their abusers from being transferred to adult court. Congrats to @HRFK_ORG & VA partners governor.virginia.gov/newsroom/news-…
Amazing news! HB 268 is now law! This legislation will go a long way towards protecting child trafficking victims accused of harming their exploiters from being tried as adults. Thanks to partners @HRFK_ORG @kruzan_sara & VA orgs for making this a reality! #criminalizedsurvivors
