On the recordNovember 19, 2024
Thank you, my friend. The Senate, as divided as it may seem, can and has acted decisively. We have all witnessed this with the Kids Online Safety Act, led by my friends and Senators Blumenthal, Blackburn, Markey, and Cassidy, which sailed through the Senate unanimously. The bill protects both youth currently impacted by social media but also seeks to address the root causes of the danger: the addictive design of the algorithm. This decisive action shows me that this body can and will do big things together to protect our young people. This is proof that there is that hope. And I now turn back to my colleague Senator Britt for her leadership on yet another bipartisan bill that I hope will also pass through this Chamber.
