On Wednesday, I met with Maurine Molak who lost her son David in 2016 to suicide after he was cyber bullied. In his memory, Maurine co-founded David’s Legacy Foundation to progress online safety initiatives and make sure no parent ever has to go through what she did.
To build upon Maurine's efforts, I am building support in Congress around the Kids Online Safety Act. The last time Congress passed a child internet safety bill was in 1998, and it's past time for new measures to be put in place.
The Kids Online Safety Act will protect our children from malicious, targeted content on the internet and give parents more insight into what their kids are exposed to in today’s digital era.
