In the House vote Wednesday on the Respect for Child Survivors Act, 28 Republicans said no to the legislation that aims to address the FBIās mishandling of child sex abuse cases.
The bipartisan
bill was introduced in the House of Representatives in the wake of the investigation of Larry Nassar, the longtime doctor for the U.S. womenās national gymnastics team. Multiple reports of Nassarās sexual abuse of children and young women on the team were ignored for years. Through this legislation, the FBI would be required to use multidisciplinary teams of trained professionals in investigations of sexual abuse to address the problems of poorly conducted interviews and the re-traumatizing of survivors.
Despite opposition from the GOP lawmakers, the bill
passed in the House on a vote of 385 to 28. But many are
calling attention to the hypocrisy of the Republicans who voted no.
Among the Republicans who opposed the bill were Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.) and Lauren Boebert (Colo). Both embrace far-right views and have previously made anti-LGBTQ comments equating queer adults to predators, labeling them as āgroomersā ā a
right-wing rhetorical smear that has been used to discredit the LGBTQIA+ community in discussions about civil rights.
