Senate Brings Internet Safety One Step Closer, NCPC Calls for Swift House Action
30 Julio 2024 - 1:40PM
Today’s Senate passage of two key bills brings the U.S. one step
closer to adding some seatbelts, air bags, and other needed safety
measures to keeping children and teenagers safe on the information
superhighway. The Kids Online Safety Act, or KOSA, and the Children
and Teens’ Online Privacy Protection Act, or COPPA, will make
selling illicit fentanyl, trafficking children, and exposure to a
range of mental health risks more difficult. This is a victory for
American families.
The House of Representatives now can make these two bills the
law of the land. The House should make passage of these two bills
the highest priority before our children return to school from
summer vacation. The sooner action is taken, more lives will be
saved.
