HARRISBURG, Pa. — A Pennsylvania lawmaker who has told of his
victimization as a child by a Roman Catholic priest said Tuesday that he
will keep fighting for legislation to allow onetime-child sexual abuse
victims to sue for damages, despite the measure’s rejection in the
Senate as the legislative session winds down.
Rep. Mark Rozzi, D-Berks, is backed by top House lawmakers, victim advocates and both major party candidates for state attorney general — Republican John Rafferty and Democrat Josh Shapiro — as part of wider legislation to respond to child sexual abuse cover-ups.
