If you’re completely uneducated on the legislative process (like me) but concerned about kids online safety (like me), this is the video for you.
I brought in former Congressional staffer and policy expert Patrick Lyden to get us parents up to speed on what’s happening with the 9 online safety bills that are currently being reviewed at a federal level.
I’m listing the bills below, but whether or not you know a lick about the bill, you can simply reach out to your state representative to let them know you are generally concerned about your child’s safety online.
Just visit house.gov and enter your ZIP code at the top-right.
