Janel Grant is continuing her public push against non-disclosure agreements tied to workplace misconduct, and this week she brought that fight directly to lawmakers in Connecticut. Grant appeared before the Connecticut Labor and Public Employees Committee alongside her attorney, Erica Nolan, to support Senate Bill 355. The proposed legislation would limit the use of NDAs in cases involving workplace harassment and discrimination. Grant first filed a lawsuit in 2024 against WWE, Vince McMahon and John Laurinaitis alleging sexual assault and trafficking during her time working for the company. Laurinaitis has since been dropped as a defendant from the case, while McMahon has denied the allegations. During the hearing, Nolan explained that NDAs are often used in ways that prevent victims from speaking openly about alleged misconduct. She said intimidation tied to those agreements can sometimes come in subtle ways. Nolan went on to claim Grants situation has been far more public and aggressive than what many victims experience. The goal of Senate Bill 355 is not to eliminate NDAs entirely, but rather prevent them from being used to conceal alleged illegal conduct while still allowing companies to protect legitimate business interests. Grant also revealed that the situation escalated recently to the point where she felt forced to involve law enforcement. According to her testimony, she filed a police report within the past week after what she described as online intimidation tactics that she believed could threaten her safety. Grant said police reached out to WWE following the report, but she claims the company did not respond to their call. The testimony adds another chapter to the ongoing legal battle that has placed WWE and its former leadership under intense scrutiny while lawmakers debate whether stronger protections are needed for workers who sign NDAs. Do you think laws limiting NDAs in harassment cases would help protect victims, or could it create new legal complications for businesses?
