Source: Pacific Press / GettyNew York Attorney General Letitia James is among the 20 attorneys general who’ve filed a lawsuit against the Department of Justice (DOJ) over a rule change denying care for sexual assault victims if they can’t prove their citizenship.
“Sexual assault and domestic violence survivors turn to our courts for safety and protection,” Letitia James said in a statement released by the attorneys.
“With this cruel attempt to dictate which survivors deserve access to legal supports, DOJ is endangering families, silencing survivors, and threatening public safety,” Letitia James said in the statement.
For the sake of assault victims across the country, I hope Letitia James and the coalition of attorneys are successful in blocking this blatantly cruel rule.
