Protecting Texas children is one of the most serious responsibilities of lawmakers, and we will treat it that way—especially in an increasingly digital world.
After recently speaking with Rep. @donfortexas, I was alerted to a graphic, first-person shooter game on the online platform Roblox recreating the tragedy at Robb Elementary and targeting young users. That alone is indefensible. But it’s not an outlier—it reflects a broader failure to prevent violent, explicit, and predatory content from reaching children.
Today, I issued an additional interim charge directing the House Committee on State Affairs to take a hard look at these failures and hold platforms like Roblox accountable—focusing on content moderation, age verification, and prevention of exploitation and predatory contact between minors and adults.
When nearly 40 percent of Roblox’s 144 million daily users are under 13, there must be zero tolerance for weak safeguards and indifferent oversight. Platforms that allow content glorifying real-world violence are putting children at risk.
The Texas House will not look the other way while companies aimed at children permit—and profit from—this kind of environment. Accountability is coming, and we will be ready to act.
I am grateful to Rep. McLaughlin for raising awareness of this issue, and to Chairman @KingForTexas and the State Affairs committee for taking this on and working toward better protections for our next generation.
