Subject Line: Please Pass HB 1109 Out of Committee 


Dear Members of the House Rules Committee:


I am writing to urge your support for HB 1109, Concerning Victims of Sexual Assault, sponsored by Representative Tina Orwall.  I urge the Committee to pass HB 1109 out of committee without delay. 


The public safety imperative for enacting HB 1109 is critical for Washington State.  With the enactment of HB 1109, Washington State will further the critical advancement of our state’s ongoing legislative campaign  to deliver long-delayed justice for all sexual assault survivors. With the enactment of HB 1109, Washington State will advance critical reform in the way law enforcement and prosecutors investigate and prosecute sexual assault cases.  By passing HB 1109 out of committee, Washington State will also advance the Survivors’ Bill of Rights. 


Passing HB 1109 out of committee will further advance a critical justice imperative for all survivors.  These critical justice and public safety imperatives demand the continuation of Representative Orwall’s sexual assault survivors legislative campaign by passing HB 1109 out of committee and enacting this vital legislation. 


Thank you for your time and consideration of this critical legislation.  


Sincerely,

[Name]
