Um, and so... Who's your congressman?
Um, we are talking to several.
A lot of them want it.
Um, Congressman Issa's office was really interested in this.
He's a Republican out of California.
California has a version of Trace Law that was part of a broader Crime Victims Act.
And so, we don't need to pass Trace Law in California.
They've already covered this space.
Um, but it's only Tennessee, go Tennessee, 2019.
There is a plaintiff's attorney, a Democrat, and a very Republican legislature
who said, this is evil, and he's deceased now.
But, uh... Representative Beck in Tennessee, uh, it's just two, it's like two lines, one sentence, that NDAs and child sexual abuse and trafficking cases should be void and unenforceable as against the public interest of the state.
There was no hearing.
There was no testimony in the committee.
Unanimous.
Zero no votes.
And yeah, so that was 2019.
So anyone under an NDA in Tennessee since 2019, void and unenforceable.
And you have to change the law because the lawyers don't even know that's a law sometimes.
So the lawyers are gonna keep putting victims under NDAs, so you have to change the law so then the victim can realize, or they can find a different attorney who tells them, you were put under NDA in 2020 in Tennessee, it's void and unenforceable because of this 2019 law.
