SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) The Internet has facilitated the growth of a multi-
        billion dollar global market for images and video of children 
        being sexually-displayed, raped, and tortured, far exceeding 
        law enforcement's capacity to respond at the Federal, State, 
        and local level.
            (2) The explosion of child pornography trafficking is 
        claiming very young victims. Research by the Department of 
        Justice, the University of New Hampshire, and the National 
        Center for Missing and Exploited Children indicates that among 
        those arrested for possession of child pornography, 83 percent 
        have images of children 6-12 years old, 39 percent have images 
        of children 3-5 years old, and 19 percent have images of 
        children under the age of 3 years old.
            (3) The images and videos being trafficked typically depict 
        sexual assaults that are both graphic and brutal. The same 
        research indicates that 80 percent of known child pornography 
        possessors have images of children being sexually penetrated 
        and 21 percent have images depicting children bound, gagged, 
        blindfolded, or ``otherwise enduring sadistic sex.'' Just 1 
        percent restricted their collecting to images of simple child 
        nudity.
            (4) Millions of American children and teens are at risk 
        from sexual predators who are hunting, stalking, and luring 
        minors online. Along with the incredible access to the world 
        offered our children by the Internet, the Internet also offers 
        the world access to our children.
            (5) The Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force program 
        (``ICAC Program'') of the Department of Justice has identified 
        millions of child pornography transactions involving images and 
        video of child sexual assault from millions of computer IP 
        addresses worldwide.
            (6) The ICAC Program has been highly successful in creating 
        and sustaining an emerging national network of 46 Federal, 
        State, and local task forces, which form the backbone of 
        America's national readiness to combat child exploitation.
            (7) In testimony before Congress, law enforcement experts 
        have expressed consensus that lack of dedicated forensic 
        analysis capacity is a severe problem at the Federal, State, 
        and local level, severely limiting the number of predators that 
        can be interdicted and children that can be identified and 
        rescued.
            (8) The Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Department of 
        Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, and the United States 
        Postal Inspection Service have each developed highly 
        specialized and successful child exploitation investigative 
        capabilities, yet these agencies have testified to Congress 
        that they must triage the overwhelming number of child 
        exploitation crimes and cannot investigate a large percentage 
        of known crimes.
            (9) Child pornography and online child enticement crimes 
        have among the highest conviction rates of any child sexual 
        offense, and the Department of Justice funded research 
        indicates that the majority of child pornography offenders have 
        committed or attempted direct sexual contact offenses against 
        children. Investigating and prosecuting these predators is thus 
        one of the most concrete and measurable strategies for the 
        prevention of future child sexual abuse.

SEC. 3. DEFINITIONS.

    In this Act, the following definitions shall apply:
            (1) Child exploitation.--The term ``child exploitation''

        exploitation of a minor, abusive sexual contact of a minor, 
        sexually explicit conduct with a minor, or any similar offense 
        under Federal or State law.
