Paris Hilton Fights for Foster Youth on Capitol Hill After Detailing Abuse She Faced: ‘I Won’t Give Up on You’

Paris Hilton testified on the need for strengthening child welfare protections in front of the House Ways and Means Committee on Wednesday, June 26

She spoke in front of the House Ways and Means Committee, citing her own negative experience when she was staying at a youth residential treatment facility while she was younger. “These programs promised growth, healing and support but instead did not allow me to speak, move freely or look out a window for two years,” Hilton shared.
