The Speak Out Act was bipartisan legislation introduced in 2022 by Marsha Blackburn and other senators. It was intended to strengthen workplace protections in cases involving sexual harassment or sexual assault. The law made certain agreements signed before a dispute, including nondisclosure and nondisparagement clauses, unenforceable in those cases. Pres. Joe Biden signed the Speak Out Act into law in December 2022.
