WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Chairman of the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, and U.S. Representative Maria Elvira Salazar (R-Fla.) hosted a bipartisan roundtable with First Lady Melania Trump to hear from victims of revenge and deepfake pornography and highlight the urgent need for the House to pass the bipartisan TAKE IT DOWN Act.
