Congresswoman Ashley Hinson (IA-01) voted in favor of the Ending Forced Arbitration of Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment Act, bipartisan legislation that ends the system of forced arbitration in lawsuits relating to sexual assault and harassment claims. This bill passed the House tonight with bipartisan support.

 

“Those who have endured sexual assault and harassment deserve to have their voices heard on their own terms, but mandatory arbitration silences victims and stops predators from being held accountable. This bipartisan legislation ensures that victims can have their day in court if they so choose. I’m grateful for Rep. Cheri Bustos and Rep. Morgan Griffith's leadership on this effort—I’ll continue to work across the aisle to end sexual harassment in the workplace." -Congresswoman Ashley Hinson
