Dec 18, 2024, 09:16 PM
On December 18, 2024, the U.S. Congress passed the Stop Institutional Child Abuse Act, a bipartisan bill aimed at protecting children from abuse in residential youth treatment facilities. The legislation passed the House with a vote of 373-33 after unanimous approval in the Senate, seeking to increase transparency and oversight of these facilities. Paris Hilton, who has been a vocal advocate for the bill based on her own experiences as a teenager, played a significant role in its passage by sharing her story and urging lawmakers to take action. "This is a day I will never forget," Hilton said following the bill's passage. The bill now heads to President Biden's desk for his signature.
