Why I am adding the "ECCHO Act" to our fight.

Friends,

​Thank you to everyone who has signed and shared this petition so far. Your support has given me the courage to dig deeper.

​When I started this petition, I was fighting for the Combating Online Predators Act (H.R. 6719). That bill is critical because it finally treats online threats (like sextortion) as serious crimes.

​But over the last 24 hours, I realized something was missing.

​My own story wasn't about threats or blackmail. It was about sadistic control. My predator didn't need leverage; he used psychological manipulation to command me to harm myself.

​I did some research, and I found the missing piece. It is called the ECCHO Act (Ending Coercion of Children and Harm Online Act).

​This newly introduced Senate bill specifically creates a federal crime for "coercing a child into self-harm." It targets the exact nightmare I lived through—where the weapon wasn't a gun, but a command.

​I am officially updating this petition to fight for BOTH bills:

​The Combating Online Predators Act (House): To stop the threats and blackmail before they start.

​The ECCHO Act (Senate): To punish the sadistic coercion that forces children to injure themselves.

​We need both shields. One stops the leverage; the other punishes the mind games.

​Please share this updated mission. We are not just closing one loophole; we are closing them all.

​In Solidarity,

​Aspen Brauer
