Schatz is the lead author of the Kids Off Social Media Act, bipartisan legislation that will keep kids off social media and help protect them from its harmful impacts. “The UK is the latest example of a country stepping up to protect kids online. More and more governments are recognizing that addictive social media platforms are causing real harm to kids. Parents are asking for help, and lawmakers should listen. It’s time to pass the Kids Off Social Media Act.” ### | 1 | 2026-06-24T06:25:30Z | 2026-06-24T06:26:49Z |
