In her push to eliminate the statute of limitations for child sex abuse
crimes, state Assemblywoman Margaret Markey (D-Maspeth) and supporters
of the Child Victims Act will lobby the Legislature in Albany for
passage of the reform bill. The CVA has been adopted in the Assembly
four times in various forms since 2006, but has never made it to the
floor of the Senate.
“New York is among the very worst states in America for how it treats victims of childhood sexual abuse,” Markey said. “We rank right at the very bottom among the 50 states along with Alabama and Mississippi. This is the year to change that deplorable situation. Now the CVA has more than 60 co-sponsors in the Assembly and visitors are coming to tell legislators in both houses they want to see the law changed this year.”
