EXCLUSIVE — Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) is introducing legislation seeking to raise federal mandates for those convicted of child abuse, child pornography, and other related crimes to correct statutes that the Florida congresswoman calls “scarily low.”
Luna will introduce three bills, the Holding Child Predators Accountable Act, the No Repeat Child Sex Offenders Act, and the Justice for Rape Survivors Act, on Thursday. In an interview with the Washington Examiner, Luna, a first-term congresswoman, said she introduced the bills not only because she’s a new mother but because she believes there is more Congress can do to protect children and victims of abuse.
