Quote of the Day
“"Public funds should never be used to protect perpetrators and silence victims through non-disclosure agreements — period,” said Sen. Diana DiZoglio. “It’s a shameful practice and an outright abuse of taxpayer dollars. I want to know how much in taxpayer dollars have gone toward the abuse of NDAs (nondisclosure agreements) across our state.”
House Speaker DeLeo's tactic of using non-disclosure agreements to cover up sexual assault claims in the State House.
