Obscenity Strikes Again: Tell the AG to Prosecute!
In 2016, then-candidate Donald Trump made a very encouraging promise: For the first time in years, the U.S. would enforce existing laws against obscene pornography. But that promise remains unfulfilled, despite official pleas from pro-family congressmen. That's why we are inviting you to join thousands of other Americans in calling on U.S. Attorney General William Barr to fulfill President Trump's pledge.

Now, even more evidence has emerged that reveals the horrific damage caused by hard-core porn.
Consider the tragic story of Rose. She was raped at knife point by three men over a period of 12 hours when she was 14 years old. The men recorded the assault and uploaded the video to Pornhub. When the video of the rape got out, Rose was forced to relive her trauma again and again by people who had seen the video - bullied by some and avoided by others.
Rose begged Pornhub to take down the video. She was a minor. She was kidnapped and violently assaulted, suffering serious injuries. For six months, Rose begged. It wasn't until Rose faked an email account and pretended to be a lawyer that Pornhub finally removed the video. But the damage was beyond repair.
The stories continue. Just recently, police were finally able to track down a missing trafficked teen after a year-long search. They found her after her own mother was tipped off that the young girl
might be on Pornhub. She was. Sixty videos and photos of the young girl had been uploaded to the website by her kidnapper, trafficker and rapist.
There are countless more stories like these.
Pornhub is the nation's largest porn site, with 42 billion visits last year. Yet, not all porn is legal in the United States. Everyone knows that child porn is illegal. But so are videos of rape, depictions of sex-trafficking victims, and many other types of hardcore pornography.
So how can Pornhub continue to offer this horrific and criminal content to its consumers? Simple - because they aren't being prosecuted, and they won't police themselves.
That's why four members of Congress - Reps. Jim Banks, Vicky Hartzler, Mark Meadows and Brian Babin - sent a letter to Attorney General Barr asking him to fulfill President Trump's pledge to prosecute obscene pornography. They have yet to receive a substantive response.
