HJR 130 -- CIVIL CLAIMS ON CHILDHOOD SEXUAL ABUSE

SPONSOR: Seitz

Currently, it is unconstitutional to enact laws that are retrospective in their operation, which would include civil claims against defendants for whom the statute of limitation has expired. Upon voter approval, this resolution proposes a constitutional amendment to allow retrospective laws as they apply to civil claims involving childhood sexual abuse or tortious conduct that caused or contributed to childhood sexual abuse.

This bill is similar to SJR 51 (2025).
