Ed Markey: “I ask unanimous consent to speak for up to 2 minutes on my amendment. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so…”

Congress must pass my Youth AI Privacy Act to protect kids using AI chatbots and pass COPPA 2.0 to update my original law.

As with other efforts to erode federal civil rights oversight and enforcement, ED’s proposed rule is ‘like throwing away your umbrella in a rainstorm because you are not getting wet.’

The agency should also address the thousands of potential toxins already used that the GRAS loophole has rubberstamped since its creation.

While the rule claims to offer ‘flexibility’ in desegregation compliance efforts, the Administration’s actions reveal that its goal is to throw away the umbrella, not find a raincoat instead.
