What this bill would do

The ENFORCE Act aims to strengthen law enforcement regarding material depicting obscene child sexual abuse or child pornography. It updates the definition of producing child pornography to include specific details about the transport or use of interstate commerce. The bill also removes the statute of limitations for offenses involving obscene visual representations of child sexual abuse. Additionally, it includes these crimes in sex offender registration requirements. The legislation also establishes rules for the care of visual depictions in criminal proceedings and creates a presumption of detention for certain violators.
