U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin is leading an effort against online child exploitation through a trio of new bills, he announced Tuesday.

“Big Tech continues to fail our most vulnerable because they refuse to incorporate safety-by-design measures into their platforms or make meaningful efforts to detect the increasingly violent and depraved sexual exploitation of children on their services,” Durbin said in a statement.

Among the bills is the Sentencing Accountability
