The legislation I'm helping introduce today is just a step toward mitigating the harm done to these kids and holding those responsible accountable—but it’s a critical one we must take immediately before the kids in our care are even further hurt and traumatized.

For the sake of the children—I urge my colleagues to join this effort to protect the kids in our care and stop these abuses. I will not stop fighting—none of us can stop fighting—until this is made right.
