Bill H.887, introduced by Representative Krasnow, seeks to amend the Fair Employment Practices Act by expanding the definition of "crime victim" to include survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking. This change aims to enhance protections for individuals who have experienced these forms of violence, ensuring they are recognized within the framework of employment practices.

The proposed legislation reflects a commitment to supporting victims of serious crimes by acknowledging their unique challenges in the workplace. By formally including these survivors in the definition of crime victims, the bill aims to promote fair treatment and prevent discrimination against them in employment settings.
