The proposal would make the criminal penalties stricter for people who sexually exploit children, including those who produce, distribute, or possess child sexual abuse material. Law enforcement agencies and prosecutors would have stronger tools to punish these crimes more severely. The changes would affect anyone convicted of child exploitation offenses and aim to deter these crimes and protect children from abuse.
