Maddy summaryThis House Resolution designates April 2025 as Sexual Assault Awareness Month in California and formally recognizes April 30, 2025, as Denim Day. It encourages all Californians to wear jeans on Denim Day to symbolize that no one "invites" or "deserves" sexual assault, reinforcing the message that a survivor’s clothing is never relevant to consent. The resolution references California’s existing law (AB 939, 2021), which prohibits using a survivor’s attire as evidence of consent in sexual assault cases. As a symbolic gesture - not a new law - it aims to raise public awareness and support survivors, aligning with California’s established victim-centered approach to sexual violence.

It also reminds schools that students in grades 6 through 12 may take an excused absence to attend civic events with prior notice.
