AI Summary
This bill, the JUSTICE Act of 2019 (Jurists United to Stop Trafficking Imitation Child Exploitation Act of 2019), amends federal law to prohibit the importation or transportation of "child sex dolls." These are defined as anatomically-correct dolls, mannequins, or robots with features resembling minors, intended for use in sexual acts. The bill cites findings that there is a correlation between possessing such dolls and engaging in child pornography, and that the dolls can normalize and facilitate the exploitation and abuse of minors.
