This bill amends Title 42 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, specifically focusing on the rights and immunities related to public expression and participation in matters of public significance. It emphasizes the importance of encouraging participation, particularly in the disclosure of sexual offenses, while ensuring that such participation is not deterred by the misuse of the judicial process. The definition of "protected public expression" is expanded to include communications regarding allegations of abuse and sexual violence, provided these communications are not made maliciously.

Additionally, the bill clarifies exclusions from the subchapter's application in civil actions, specifically removing references to certain chapters related to protection from abuse and sexual violence, while retaining the applicability of The Insurance Company Law of 1921. The changes aim to enhance protections for individuals expressing concerns about public issues, particularly in sensitive areas such as sexual violence, while also refining the legal framework surrounding these protections. The act is set to take effect 90 days after its passage.
