Child Exploitation Material - Civil and Criminal Actions (Safe Kids Act)
In the Senate - First Reading Senate Rules
Summary
The Safe Kids Act would make it illegal for online platforms to knowingly create, distribute, or sell child exploitation material, including images generated by artificial intelligence. It gives parents or guardians of children depicted in such material the right to sue the platform for damages, and allows the Attorney General to seek injunctions. The bill also updates criminal law by defining AI‑generated images as child pornography and raising the protected age from 16 to 18.
