YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

On this critically important episode of Verdict with Ted Cruz, Sen. Ted Cruz does a deep dive into Trey’s Law — bipartisan legislation to stop non-disclosure agreements from silencing child sexual abuse victims.

Named after Trey Carlock, a Texan abused for years at a Missouri summer camp, the bill ensures survivors can never be legally forced into silence. Trey later died by suicide after being pressured to sign an NDA during civil litigation.

Trey’s sister, Elizabeth Phillips, joins the show to tell his story and explain how secrecy and institutional protection harm victims nationwide.

With bipartisan support alongside Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, Cruz says Congress will get this done.

This episode speaks out for victims and exposes a system that protects predators.
