Senate Passes Revenge Porn Bill, House Committee Forwards Several Bills

The Rhode Island House and Senate were both busy on Tuesday.  The Senate passed a bill making revenge porn and sextortion illegal, two years after Governor Gina Raimondo vetoed similar legislation, but this version is being called a compromise.  The House Judiciary Committee approved two gun-control bills -- one banning bump stocks and another creating a so-called "red flag" law -- and a bill allowing so-called Dreamers, or DACA recipients, to maintain driver's licenses in Rhode Island even if DACA protections are stripped.  Those bills will be forwarded to the full House for consideration on Thursday.
