Overview
Text
Bill Intelligence

The bill aims to prevent the enforcement of nondisclosure and confidentiality agreements in cases of sexual abuse of minors. It addresses the impact of such agreements on the reporting and prosecution of federal crimes involving minors, and the constitutional rights of survivors. The Act defines terms like "minor person" and "sexual abuse against a minor person" and declares nondisclosure clauses as void and unenforceable if they restrict the disclosure of sexual abuse against a minor. The law applies retroactively and supersedes any state law permitting enforcement of such provisions. However, states can enact legislation providing greater protection for victims.

Unanimous Consent
Unanimous Consent
A senator may request unanimous consent on the floor to set aside a specified rule of procedure so as to expedite proceedings. If no Senator objects, the Senate permits the action, but if any one senator objects, the request is rejected. Unanimous consent requests with only immediate effects are routinely granted, but ones affecting the floor schedule, the conditions of considering a bill or other business, or the rights of other senators, are normally not offered, or a floor leader will object to it, until all senators concerned have had an opportunity to inform the leaders that they find it acceptable.
Passed/agreed to in Senate: Passed Senate without amendment by Unanimous Consent.
