AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill requires the U.S. Attorney General to set up a national working group within 90 days to study how law enforcement can find and rescue children who are victims of sexual abuse and child sexual abuse material. The group would collect information from state, tribal, and local police, estimate the number of suspects and child victims, and recommend funding, resources, and investigation strategies. It would have to report its findings and recommendations to the Attorney General and Congress within one year. The group could issue subpoenas, hold hearings, and would pay state and local agencies reasonable costs for records. Members would serve without pay.
