The head of the advocacy group has resigned after being implicated in an effort to help Andrew Cuomo
The letter, signed by 145 survivors, called on Time’s Up to meet eight demands, the first of which asks the group to conduct an independent investigation and publish a report on “the full extent to which Time’s Up and National Women’s Law Center board members and staff members have been approached by, offered advice to, or are representing perpetrators of harm.”
Turkos told Jezebel that Tchen and Kaplan resigning is a step in the right direction, but it doesn’t address deeper issues at Time’s Up“The problems at TIME’S UP and the National Women’s Law Center, which houses the TIME’S UP Legal Defense Fund, are systemic, deeper than Robbie and Tina,” Turkos said. “In order to know the entire truth, and depth of harm, a third-party investigation must be completed and full results shared publicly.
“You have witnessed the collective power of survivors, you have seen us center one another, lift up each other’s stories and experiences, we are the experts in our own lives,” Turkos continued. “I just wish the leaders in our movement believed in us the same way we believe in one another.”Jezebel has reached out to Time’s Up for comment about Tchen’s resignation and any other steps the group may take to address Turkos’s and others’ criticisms. We’ll update this post if we hear back.
