The U.S. Senate passed the Protect Our Children Act, legislation introduced by Senator Dean Heller and others, that would help law enforcement pursue criminals who exploit children online.  The Protect Our Children Act  reauthorizes the Internet Crimes Against ChildrenTask Force Program, a national network of 61 coordinated task forces that combat child exploitation across the country. They aid local and state law enforcement in the creation and implementation of effective responses to technology-facilitated child sexual exploitation. Senator Heller says this is a positive step forward to protecting our children from online predators.
