A bill to make it easier for police to find and prosecute child sexual predators is now law.

President Bush signed the Protect Our Children Act into law late Monday.

Supporters say the bi-partisan legislation is a historic effort and will help save tens of thousands of U.S. children from abuse.

The law will dramatically increase funding for internet crimes against children task forces and provide more resources for computer forensic labs.
