Paris Hilton Thinks About Getting Into Politics After Her Supported Bill Passes the House

Paris Hilton has opened up about the possibility of pursuing a political career after her advocacy efforts resulted in a significant victory in Congress. On December 13, 2024, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Stop Institutional Child Abuse Act, a bill that Hilton strongly supported. The bill, which calls for increased oversight of child treatment facilities, has already passed the Senate. Hilton, who has been vocal about her own traumatic experience of being sexually assaulted at a boarding school, has been dedicated to bringing attention to the issue of institutional child abuse.

Reflecting on her advocacy work, Hilton told The Hill that seeing her voice make a tangible difference has led her to consider a future in politics. She expressed a desire to continue shining a spotlight on important global issues, particularly those impacting children.

Celebrating the milestone, Hilton shared her emotions on social media, calling the day “a day [she] will never forget.” She expressed gratitude to the survivors, families, and coalition members who supported the cause. Hilton emphasized that the win was not only for herself but also for the children who have suffered abuse in silence.
