It's great that your congressperson was enlightened enough to pull the bill. Some states (such as Minnesota) apparently actively prosecute children for sexting.

I was pleasantly surprised.

Minnesota is so bizarrely, irrationally wrong on that one. That poor kid needs an adult to sit her down and explain why sending out nude pics as a minor is a really bad idea, not to label her as a sex offender. Now, if someone (especially an adult) received those pics and shared them, go ahead and charge that person.
