#Urgent Push to Pass KOSA to Save Young Lives! Why KOSA? 🤔 KOSA offers the most comprehensive solution of any child protection bill pending before Congress. 🛡️ The bill holds tech companies legally accountable for designing their products to keep children safe. 👶💻 It does this by: ✅ Requiring common-sense safety settings be automatically turned ON for children ⚖️ Establishing a legally actionable duty of care for platforms likely to be accessed by minors 🛠️ Requiring platforms provide safeguards & tools for parents and guardians to protect their children 🔍 Requiring transparency, so companies must disclose their policies and practices around personal data use and minors’ safety Thank you Rep Brandon Guffey for your tireless efforts. Team-up with the National Center on Sexual Exploitation's Isabella Peracchi 🏆 Eleanor Kennelly Gaetan, Ph.D Dawn Hawkins Andrew Young

My voice wouldn’t be heard by as many if it wasn’t for great support from groups. National Center on Sexual Exploitation has been my biggest advocate to help advance the message. I am grateful to work together on the common goal of protecting our children online.

Well done Marcel from all the way Down Under in Australia. What is the delay in getting KOSA accepted? So many Senators were supportive of the Bill after the Senate Hearing in February, but now the cameras are no longer on them, they seemed to have forgotten their claims of support and advocacy.

Interesting… Would love to know what their excuse is. Kinda sounds like someone has something to hide 🤨🤔
