Om's Law (HB 272) is named after 16 year old Om Ghandi who was murdered by his father on Mothers Day weekend 2023 after his mother fought tirelessly in court for 14 years. Despite there being multiple evidence of abuse, Om's father was able to use the legal defense of 'parental alienation' and gain custody of Om. The law calls for advanced training in the judicial system for people making decisions when there has been abuse against the child; the child’s safety comes first—the child first and always.
This law will ban the use of reunification therapy and barbaric reunification camps that aim to cut contact with the child's preferred parent and place them in the sole custody of their abusers.
