The new version calls for the attorney general's office to take the lead on education and diversion programs for teens involved in sexting, an approach the House had preferred.

The House plans on Wednesday to take up a compromise version of a bill to crack down on revenge porn and coercive control, Speaker Ronald Mariano's office told the News Service after negotiators filed the conference report just after 3:30 p.m. Tuesday.

"I think it's a better bill at this stage. It's a great House bill, a great Senate bill, and I think working together we've produced even a better bill," Keenan told reporters. The two Republican members of the conference, state Rep. Alyson Sullivan-Almeida and state Sen. Ryan Fattman, were not present but also signed on in support of the new text, the clerk's office said.
