Missouri SJR93 proposes a constitutional amendment allowing retrospective laws for civil claims involving childhood sexual abuse.
Missouri SJR93 seeks to amend the state's constitution to permit retrospective laws for civil claims related to childhood sexual abuse. This change would allow the enactment of laws that apply to past events, specifically targeting cases of sexual abuse of children under eighteen. The amendment would repeal the current prohibition on retrospective laws and replace it with a provision that explicitly allows such laws for childhood sexual abuse claims. This measure would be put to a vote in the next general election.
