A South Dakota senate committee approved of a new
child sex abuse task force. We are glad that this first step has
been taken to make South Dakota children safer and we encourage
legislatures to not stop there.

The Senate Education Committee unanimously approved
the bill, which would create the task force to study the impact
of child sexual assault. The task force is named for a SD victim
of child sex abuse, Jolene's Law Task Force.
We hope this bill becomes a law and that children are
made safer because of it. We also hope that this is a positive
sign that SD will reexamine its archaic statute of limitations
on child sexual abuse.
