House Passes Child Abuse Bill

On July 28, the House passed, by voice vote, the Victims of Child Abuse Reauthorization Act (S. 1799). The Senate passed the bill on June 26 (see The Source, 6/27/14). The House vote clears the bill for President Obama’s signature.

The measure, if signed by the president, would reauthorize the Victims of Child Abuse Act of 1990 (P.L. 101-647).
