Senate Judiciary Committee Advances Three Bills To Stop Exploitation Of Kids Online, Six District Court Judge Nominations To The Full Senate

Press Release

"In our February hearing that kicked off our legislative effort to protect children online this Congress, I said that this issue isn't partisan, keeps parents and children up at night, and deserves action. That is exactly what we're doing. We've now passed four bills out of this committee to stop the exploitation of kids online -- including the three today. The online world poses serious risks and dangers, and our bills will strengthen resources for families, provide legal recourse and support for victims, and hold Big Tech accountable for its failure to regulate itself.

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Our mission to ensure a fair justice system for America remains as strong as ever -- including by advancing diverse, highly qualified nominees for confirmation to lifetime appointments on the federal bench. The individuals nominated by President Biden and advanced by our committee represent the demographic and professional diversity that's become a hallmark of the past two years, and I look forward to continuing the work.

I believe I speak for all of us with feelings of relief and support for our colleague Senator Feinstein, who has returned to Washington. She's been through some significant health challenges, and we all wish her the very best."
