HB 1141 Mississippi House · 2026 Regular Session

Trey's Law; create to prohibit nondisclosure agreements by sex abuse survivors.

HB 1141, "Trey's Law," prohibits agreements that prevent survivors of sexual abuse from disclosing abuse details to others. It makes any non-disclosure clause in settlements, employment contracts, or other agreements related to sexual abuse void and unenforceable, protecting survivors' ability to speak freely. The law applies to agreements signed on or after July 1, 2026, and only affects the sexual abuse disclosure portion - not other terms like compensation. It directly affects survivors, institutions (like employers or organizations), and legal agreements involving sexual abuse claims. The bill takes effect July 1, 2026, after being referred to committee but not passed.
