Protection for Victims of Sexual Assault by Healthcare Providers
Governor Healey Expands Protections For Victims of Sexual Assault by Healthcare Providers
Proud to have been the Senate sponsor on this vital piece of
legislation.
“Trust is the foundation of the relationship between a
doctor and a patient, and when that trust is abused to commit sexual assault,
there must be clear and meaningful punishment. This bill will ensure that such
punishment is available, and that prosecutors and victims have the tools they
need to bring justice to these types of cases.”
