Every survivor of sexual assault and exploitation deserves to have their voice heard and story told without judgment or victim-blaming. The Rep Ayanna Pressley proposed Congressional hearings regarding the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case present a critical opportunity for brave individuals who suffered unimaginable trauma to share their experiences and seek accountability. By allowing testimony from Epstein and Maxwell's victims, Congress can shed light on the disturbing systems and powerful figures that enabled these monsters to prey on vulnerable girls for decades. Allowing these survivors to be heard validates their suffering and could prevent future atrocities by exposing the full truth. I urge you, our elected leaders, to fully support and prioritize these hearings as a step toward justice and protecting the innocent.
