This statement can be attributed to Paul DelPonte, Executive Director at the National Crime Prevention Council:

In a bipartisan move, the House of Representatives passed the “Take It Down Act” to combat revenge porn and protect children online. This critical piece of legislation strengthens penalties and protects children online. It is a significant step forward in the fight to protect vulnerable minors. The National Crime Prevention Council applauds Congress for its unified commitment to tackling online exploitation and looks forward to President Trump signing this important bill into law.
