The Pennsylvania House of Representatives on Tuesday passed – for the fourth time this year – a measure that would open up a window in the commonwealth’s statute of limitations in order to allow survivors of childhood sexual abuse a two-year legal window to file suit.

House Bill 1 – which would create a ballot measure by which voters could approve an amendment to the state constitution allowing for the limitations window – was given final passage by a bipartisan vote of 147-54.
