First lady Melania Trump is set to make her first public appearance since her husband's return to office, where she will voice her support for the 'TAKE IT DOWN' Act. This legislation aims to protect Americans from deepfake and revenge pornography by criminalizing the publication of non-consensual intimate imagery, including AI-generated deepfake porn.

Targets of AI-generated non-consensual pornographic images have included prominent women like Taylor Swift and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, as well as high school girls. The bill, introduced by Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, has garnered bipartisan support and passed the Senate during the last session of Congress.
