Apparently the Catholic Church is trying to prevent laws at the state level that would allow the victims of childhood sexual abuse to sue into adulthood. Since child sexual abuse tends to be hidden by the victim for years, this makes sense and, you know, justice and all.
Charlie Pierce has been all over this and is again today.
