Does celebrity support help legislation?

 In California, Paris Hilton, founder of the nonprofit 11:11 Media Impact, is supporting SB1043 (2024 | CA). This bill requires the California Department of Social Services to detail a center’s use of “seclusion rooms” and restraints through a publicly accessible online dashboard. Paris Hilton has personal experience with physical and emotional abuse that she says she experienced at youth treatment centers. This personal connection to the issue resonated with legislators as it did with Common’s support of juvenile justice reform.
