View Comments
Survivors of abuse “stormed out” of a Tuesday meeting with Pennsylvania Senate Majority Leader Kim Ward about a bill to give victims more time to sue their abusers, while Ward’s spokeswoman said some survivors threw props at the senator before leaving.  
Jillian Ruck, the executive director of the advocacy organization Child USA, told the USA TODAY Network Pennsylvania State Capital Bureau that the survivors who met with Ward grew increasingly frustrated in three minutes of speaking with the majority leader.

State Sen. Lisa Baker, R-Luzerne County, the chairwoman of the Judiciary Committee, said that pursuing a constitutional amendment is the “legally prudent” way to allow victims to seek justice.
