Melania Trump advocates for Take It Down Act on Capitol Hill

First Lady Melania Trump is actively advocating for the 'Take It Down Act,' a proposed legislation aimed at criminalizing the nonconsensual publication of intimate imagery, including AI-generated deepfakes. During her recent public appearances on Capitol Hill, she emphasized the importance of protecting youth from online exploitation and called for bipartisan support for the legislation. The bill, introduced by Senators Ted Cruz and Amy Klobuchar, mandates that social media platforms remove harmful content within 48 hours and establishes penalties for violators. Melania's involvement marks her first significant solo initiative of President Trump's second term, following a period of relative absence from public events. Additionally, she is expected to attend a speech by Donald Trump and has invited guests with related personal stories to highlight the issues surrounding parental rights and online safety. Her advocacy aligns with her previous campaign, 'Be Best,' which focused on promoting a safer digital environment for children.
