"You Just Need To Find Someone To Be Brave For."

The deal mentioned is just to get the houses version of the bill on the house floor after which it still needs to go through senate. This version supposedly only affects adult sites (which still is bad but not as bad as every social being affected) the problem with it is that there's no duty of care and it's not Blackburn's version of the bill which will lead Blackburn and other Senate members to vote against it and Cruz is anti censorship so you know he's against it, and so on.

Seriously read the comments in the thread. I know it's scary but it's important to be optimistic despite everything, not doomerist

And then rewatched schoolhouse rock

Castor, one of the original main Democratic congressman pushing KOSA (Kids ONline safty act), is supportive of the House version in the KIDS Act. (The Kids Internet and Digital Safety Act)

another post

Explanation: (The KIDS Act, a package of proposals the Energy and Commerce panel advanced as a single bill on a party-line vote in March. It was a way neak through a collection of controversial bills like KOSA and the SCREEN Act under a new name. I had a post about it back in March)

Here are the old bills that I think have been Repackaged in the Kids act is

The Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) H.R. 6484 The Safe Messaging for Kids Act (H.R. 6257) The SPY KIDS Act (H.R. 6273) The Safer GAMING Act (H.R. 6265)) The SAFE Bots Act (H. R. 6489) The Children and Teens' Online Privacy (S. 836) Protection Act (COPPA 2.0) (HR 7890) Data Broker Disclosures [cannot find info on this] Safe Social Media Act H.R. 6290 The No Fentanyl on Social Media Act (H.R. 6259 and S. 3618) The Assessing Safety Tools for Parents and Minors Act (H.R. 6499 ) The Promoting a Safe Internet for Minors Act (H.R. 6289) The AWARE Act (H.R. 5360) The Kids Internet and Safety Partnership Act (H.R. 6437)

. This is extremely dangerous and could symbolize other sentiments in the Senate right now. Blumenthal can talk all he wants on how the KIDS Act is dead on arrival but that is not true. This is an all hands on deck moment. BLOW UP THOSE PHONES. Call 202-224-3121. Spread it.

Calling scripts ideas

Republican version

Hello, my name is [NAME]. Kids Internet and Digital Safety Act. Or KIDS Act, and its equivalents and similar legislation scattered in other bills: The Kids Online Safety Act, and a bunch of Age Verification mandates such as the SCREEN ACT .  The KIDs act  deceptively named bill, while it claims to protect children on the internet, is just repackaging unpopular censorship bills. The SCREEN act placed inside this would enable constant surveillance of American citizens, and put the sensitive data of everyone - especially children - at risk. The UK's disastrous rollout of the Online Safety Act is a perfect example of how unpopular, dangerous, and ineffective these laws are.  The Age verification bills mandate or incentivize that personal data be collected all in one place, making it easy for hackers gather, endangering children' s information and safety.  Kosa not only has similar problems, but gives state attorney generals too much power to sue any website for any reason. The last thing we need is a nanny state telling adults what we can and cannot see online.   I call on you to oppose the KIDs act package and similar, and tell your colleages to do so as well

Current FTC Chair Ferguson signed up "to fight wokeness" - a label the Trump administration applies to anything it doesn't like. The people in power can't be trusted with laws like these. If passed, these bills would be used to harm LGBTQ teens, adults, and anyone who needs information on reproductive health . I call on you to oppose the KIDS act package and similar.

My old Callling script examples (I combined to make above)

Here in the USA, we got a shit show to deal with KIDS act being passed in house

My name is (legal name) I am a (state) constituent, (zip code) and I am calling to urge you to oppose the Kids Online Safety Act.

Even though there have been significant promising changes to the bill, KOSA still fails to address the root issues related to kid’s safety online, and furthermore puts everyone at risk. While I support efforts to protect children online, this bill overreaches in ways that will harm the right to privacy and freedom of speech.

We’ve already seen how poorly this kind of policy plays out abroad. The United Kingdom passed a similar law, the Online Safety Act, which has since faced immense public backlash. A petition calling for its repeal has already surpassed its goal by more than four hundred thousand signatures. The U.S. has an even larger population, if this kind of law sparks that level of concern in the UK, we can expect far greater unrest here.

KOSA would require online platforms to verify the ages of their users, forcing us to hand over sensitive personal information, like government-issued IDs, just to access everyday websites. This kind of data collection creates massive security risks. This information could be exploited for unprecendented levels of identity theft, fraud, and surveillance.

As an adult, I should not be forced to compromise my privacy or safety to use the internet. Age-verification mandates like those in KOSA set a dangerous precedent and open the door to widespread monitoring and censorship under the guise of child protection.

There are better ways to help kids stay safe online without sacrificing the rights and privacy of millions of adults while allowing for the exposure of such sensitive data to malicious hackers.
