Bill Summary

CREEPER Act of 2017 Curbing Realistic Exploitative Electronic Pedophilic Robots Act of 2017

AI Summary

This bill, the Curbing Realistic Exploitative Electronic Pedophilic Robots Act of 2017 (CREEPER Act), aims to amend the United States Code to prohibit the importation or transportation of "child sex dolls" - defined as anatomically-correct dolls, mannequins, or robots with the features of, or resembling, minors, intended for use in sexual acts. The bill cites findings that there is a correlation between the possession of such dolls/robots and the possession/participation in child pornography, and that these objects can normalize the sexual exploitation of minors and make it easier to commit such acts. The bill seeks to address these concerns by criminalizing the import and transport of these child sex dolls.
