Urges Congress to amend the "Communication Decency Act of 1996" to allow state and local governments to investigate and prosecute those who promote.
New Jersey ACR130 urges Congress to amend the "Communication Decency Act of 1996" to allow state and local governments to investigate and prosecute those who promote prostitution and endanger children. The current act immunizes internet service providers and users from liability for tortuous acts committed by third parties, which effectively thwarts the enforcement of state criminal laws. The resolution requests that Congress amend 47 U.S.C. section 230(e)(1) to ensure that nothing in the section shall be construed to impair the enforcement of federal or state criminal statutes.
