Harvey Weinstein survivors push Governor Cuomo to support the Adult Survivors Act
to support the Adult Survivors Act, which would give survivors more time to hold their abusers accountable to get justice.
The Adult Survivors Act would provide a one-year civil look-back window for time-barred adult survivors of sex abuse. “We can’t rely on judges to correct mistakes of law enforcement,” Wednesday’s letter to Cuomo reads. “We need to take the law into our own hands, and that means passing the Adult Survivors Act.”
For many of us, traditional paths to seeking justice left us further victimized. Prosecutors failed us. We cooperated with the police and they failed us. We gathered evidence. We procured a criminal indictment. We sat through hours of investigations. And, yet, nothing happened then to the men who abused us and the institutional powers that protected them.
