The House plans on Wednesday to take up a compromise version of a bill to crack down on revenge porn and coercive control, Speaker Ronald Mariano's office told the News Service after negotiators filed the conference report just after 3:30 p.m. Tuesday.
"I think it's a better bill at this stage. It's a great House bill, a great Senate bill, and I think working together we've produced even a better bill," Keenan told reporters. The two Republican members of the conference, state Rep. Alyson Sullivan-Almeida and state Sen. Ryan Fattman, were not present but also signed on in support of the new text, the clerk's office said.
