We’re thrilled @GovKathyHochul announced her support for legislation that would protect kids online from predators, scammers and harmful AI chatbots. We look forward to working with the governor, @Sen_Gounardes and @nily to ensure this gets passed! https://t.co/z4AGllYLvL

Newly unsealed documents reveal what tech companies knew all along: the harms weren't accidental. Meta called child safety a "non-goal." Employees described products as "digital cocaine." It's time for accountability.

“You wouldn't tell states they can't protect people from unsafe food or contaminated water. AI shouldn't be any different—especially when we don’t even know what it’ll look like in a year.” https://t.co/eFV4RNe4D9

More than 60,000 Americans urge the U.S. Senate to protect states’ rights to enforce AI safety laws. We’re standing with our partners to send Congress a message: listen to your constituents, not the tech lobby, and strike this from the budget bill. https://t.co/1Y4pxqkjWM

Tech companies have used our children as guinea pigs for their targeted algorithms.

New York state leaders have a critical opportunity to build on progress to protect kids' online safety, I argue with @jimsteyer of @CommonSense:

Message from @SteveScalise constituent, a mother, pediatrician and @CommonSense advocate, for Congress to protect kids online now, before it adjourns. #PassKOSA and #COPPA.

[Jim Steyer @jimsteyer]

Happening now in Washington DC: Louisiana parents and pediatricians are meeting with the offices of @SteveScaliseGOP and @SpeakerJohnson to urge them to #PassKOSA! Congress must act now and do their part to protect kids before the end of the year!

[Danny Weiss @Danny_Weiss1]

Huge vote in the Senate, 86-1 in favor of cloture. Final vote comes Tuesday. @SenSchumer promised to bring this up, and he did it. Kids Online Safety and Privacy Act, S. 2073 is moving ahead.

[Liz Foley @LizFol]

I just took action to protect kids and teens online! Click to do the same. https://t.co/DXRa7kRG8H #PassCOPPA #PassKOSA

[Common Sense Media @CommonSense]

We've helped pass 6 kids' online safety laws in 3 states this year alone, but there's more to do.

Read on to learn about these big victories -- and the work that still lies ahead to improve the digital world for kids everywhere.

A historic day in New York, as @GovKathyHochul signed the SAFE for Kids Act into law. Our @LizFol stands with powerful advocates like @NewYorkStateAG, @Sen_Gounardes, & @nily to see this important step in making kids safer online.

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

Great news! Thanks to everyone who worked so hard to get this passed and make navigating the internet safer for kids.

[Common Sense Media @CommonSense]

Big news! Today, New York became the first state in the country to pass legislation to limit addictive social media feeds for kids and teens by passing the SAFE for Kids Act.

Read the statement from our CEO @jimsteyer: https://t.co/YpzNWqBMeG

[Liz Foley @LizFol]

Meta wants to keep your kids addicted to scrolling. Tell Congress to pass KOSA and COPPA 2.0 to help protect our kids online. #PassKOSA https://t.co/XNMp6KDp0k

[Common Sense Media @CommonSense]

Important op-ed today in the Albany @timesunion by our founder @jimsteyer about why New York needs to pass the NY SAFE for Kids Act and the NY Child Data Protection Act.

"There is an undeniable link between the extended use of social media and mental health challenges. It is time for that to change. And Albany has the power to do it."

@LizFol spoke today at a press conference w/@NYStateAG & @Sen_Gounardes in support of the NY SAFE for Kids Act

[Danny Weiss @Danny_Weiss1]

@CommonSense Now that the Senate has gotten Mark Zuckerberg to apologize to parents of children harmed by social media, the Senate should really pass legislation immediately to protect all kids online.

[Zamaan Qureshi @zamaan_qureshi]

Ahead of the Big Tech CEO hearing, @DesignItForUs is focused on $270, the lifetime dollar valuation that Meta puts on teenagers. Despite being repeatedly asked about this, a Meta executive denied the company thinks about teens this way. But lawsuits against Meta reveal otherwise.

[Carrie Goldberg @cagoldberglaw]

Total silence and a sea of parents holding photos of their beautiful dead kids. As the hearing is about to begin
