PLEASE WRITE YOUR SENATORS AND DEMAND THEY SUPPORT THIS BILL!!!

Submitted by: J Cryots

Lobby your United States Senators to support this important bill
 
To protect children from online sexual exploitation, we have to hold Big Tech accountable. Tell Congress to take action!
Dear All,
As you know, the online sexual exploitation of children is a huge problem that has been growing at an exponential rate.
Today, you have an opportunity to do something about it.
A bipartisan group of U.S. Senators has introduced legislation to encourage the tech industry to take online child sexual exploitation seriously. The Eliminating Abusive and Rampant Neglect of Interactive Technologies Act (EARN IT Act) would create incentives for companies to "earn" liability protection for violations of laws related to online child sexual abuse material.
This bill — which was introduced by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina), U.S. Senators Richard Blumenthal (D-Connecticut), Josh Hawley (R-Missouri) and Ranking Member Dianne Feinstein (D-California) — aims to ensure that tech companies are using best business practices to prevent child exploitation online.
The National Center on Sexual Exploitation has endorsed the bill and now your help is MASSIVELY IMPORTANT as technology corporations stand in strong opposition to this crucial measure.
We need the movement to end sexual exploitation, made up of passionate advocates such as yourself, to take a moment to advocate to Congress the importance of passing this bill. Members of Congress are MOST responsive to requests from their constituents because those are the ones who elect them to office.
To make your advocacy efforts more seamless, we’ve made an easy-to-use action that allows you to quickly email and tweet your senators in order to express your support of the EARN IT Act and to encourage them to support it as well.
This will be such an important victory. Thank you for being a part of it!
 
Thankful to serve with you in this movement,
Dawn Hawkins
Sr. Vice President and Executive Director
National Center on Sexual Exploitation
