Issue Position: PUBLIC SAFETY AND SEXUAL HARASSMENT

Issue Position

Cindy has worked tirelessly to update antiquated laws regarding sexual harassment and coercion, to protect women, domestic violence survivors and children.

Introduced several pieces of legislation that became law. These laws:
prohibit the labeling of children under age 14 as aggressors in sexually violent crimes,
provide housing protections for survivors of domestic abuse crimes, and
prohibit on-duty law enforcement officers from engaging in sexual relations with detainees.
Ended the use of taxpayer funds in paying fines or settlements for sexual harassment cases involving state officials.
Voted to keep guns out of the hands of those convicted of domestic abuse, which became law.
