Congressman Andy Biggs (R-AZ) introduced a constitutional amendment requiring the federal government to operate under a balanced budget, restoring fiscal discipline and protecting future generations from Washington’s addiction to spending and debt.

Congressman Biggs’s Coercion and Sexual Abuse Free Environment (CSAFE) Act was adopted unanimously by the House of Representatives. Congressman Biggs issued the following statement:

“The passage of my CSAFE Act delivers long-overdue legal clarity and serious consequences for criminals who coerce and exploit children,” said Congressman Biggs.

Today, Congressman Biggs’s Coercion and Sexual Abuse Free Environment (CSAFE) Act passed out of the Judiciary Committee’s markup in bipartisan fashion. The legislation aims to combat the growing threat of online coercion and sexual abuse targeting minors. Congressman Biggs worked closely with the White House and the Federal Bureau of Investigation in drafting the CSAFE Act to ensure law enforcement has clear statutory authority to pursue offenders exploiting children online.
