"The school’s response reveals a startling pattern: Across the nation’s largest district, parents of students with disabilities who speak up on behalf of their children say they are being charged with allegations of child abuse or neglect" https://www.the74million.org/article/they-stood-up-to-nyc-schools-for-their-disabled-child-then-cps-arrived/

In the European Union, a leaked memo has revealed that many member countries support weakening encryption as part of the fight against child exploitation."

Forcing a sexual assault victim to live in close proximity to their abuser should not be acceptable. Prison guards who sexually assault their wards must be held accountable. https://www.npr.org/2023/06/07/1180111091/prison-sexual-assault-victims-can-now-petition-for-compassionate-release

All people should have access to healthcare and we're glad the judge agrees. Targeting a group of people and denying them healthcare is barbaric. https://www.politico.com/news/2023/06/06/florida-gender-affirming-care-ruling-00100387
