HD 3013 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act relative to the charitable immunity cap for cases involving sexual abuse

This bill amends Massachusetts law to remove charitable immunity protections for cases involving sexual abuse. It directly affects victims seeking legal recourse against charitable organizations by ensuring they can pursue claims without being blocked by liability caps. The key provision adds a specific exception to Section 85K of the General Laws, stating that immunity limitations do not apply to causes of action arising from sexual abuse. This change creates a clear legal pathway for survivors to hold charitable entities accountable in such cases.
