Senator Ted Cruz was also present at Capitol Hill with Melania Trump on Monday. He additionally mentioned that the Take It Down Act would be empowering victims all across the United States of America.


For those unaware, the Take It Down Act would make it a federal crime to publish or threaten to publish any kind of intimate content online without an individual’s consent. It is currently unclear as to when the act would be passed in the House.
