Summary
Statutes of Limitation for Child Sexual Abuse Reform Act
This bill creates incentives, including authorizing the Children's Bureau's Office of Child Abuse and Neglect to make grants, for states to (1) eliminate their criminal and civil statutes of limitations for child sexual abuse, and (2) revive previously time-barred civil claims.
