Expands federal law to protect minors from being depicted in sexually explicit materials.
This bill would make it a crime to depict minors in sexually explicit materials, even if the minor didn't physically participate in the act. It aims to broaden legal protections for children and increase accountability for those who create or share such images.
Today, federal law primarily focuses on cases where a minor is coerced to physically participate in sexually explicit conduct. If this bill becomes law, it would expand the definition of sexual exploitation to include situations where a minor is simply depicted in sexually explicit conduct, even if they did not physically take part in it, as long as the depiction was intentional.
