As we mark the fifth anniversary of the #MeToo movement, a one-two punch of new laws empower survivors to speak out and tell their stories.
Previously, federal law and most state laws allowed employers and others to force non-disclosure agreements into employment and consumer contracts, ultimately silencing survivors of sexual assault and harassment. This meant that when you signed a standard employment contract, or agreed to the “terms and conditions” to download an app, you were potentially signing away your rights to tell your story about a future sexual assault or harassment incident without even realizing it.
Forced NDAs punish the survivor and protect the perpetrator, who is then free to abuse others again and again.
