Ah btw art,video games,and movies etc,will also be subjected to this if it passes. It would mean so so much censorship.
Please call your reps asap before thursday and tell them to vote no on the Interstate Obscenity Definition Act aka #S1671
The bill #S1671 aka the Obscenity bill,has been recently reintroduced and will be brought up this thursday.
If nsfw is declared ilegal,it will also be up to the govt to dictate what is considered obscene...laying the ground work for LGBT, health topics to be banned.

Subject: Interstate Obscenity Definition Act
I am calling you to make a comment to Senator [THEIR NAME] about S.1671 aka the "Interstate Obscenity Definition Act".
My name is [YOUR NAME], and I live at (YOUR ADDRESS AND CITY],I am one of your constituents.
Here is a script with the points you can use when contacting your reps :
(This one seemstp be aimed at democrats. Will update if I manage tp find a republican one)
Copypasted version of the script can be found under this tweet
..legal expression made by consenting adults
-This bill would be used to censor speech and criminalize people under the guise of "obscenity", especially by the current Trump Administration
-It would push people and communities underground, making them more vulnerable to abuse
Sorry the source I used yesterday in regard to the obscenity bill cited the wrong bill. S. 1671 is the correct name. I've linked a more primary source this time. Contact your senators. As this bill will be used to censor LGBTQ media. It's essential to fight this.

KOSA still empowers government to censor American speech online and replaces parents with an Orwellian "council" of bureaucrats, while increasing risks for children's data security.
This tool of control is not the American way—Congress should say NO to KOSA.
Speaker Johnson is right to reject the new KOSA push. Debuting brand new language at the end of the year and then trying to cram it through when there's no time left for debate is no way to make law — especially when First Amendment rights are at stake.
Unfortunately, the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) update does not address the free speech and privacy concerns. It uses more words to achieve the same ends.
If passed, the bill will regulate the internet for adults as well as kids — and result in mandatory age verification.
KOSA violates core American free speech principles, replaces parents with bureaucrats to oversee online speech, and creates massive data security risks.
Tell Congress to say NO to KOSA. https://t.co/8YSzjLS17U
@MarshaBlackburn@audreyjo_cook@elonmusk@lindayaX@X Marsha, I checked and my child is a lot more likely to die from a gun than a modem.
You have been in DC for 20 years but I can't find any bills you have sponsored to do anything about that.
That doesn't seem very efficient
