Guys, it got so much freaking worse. KOSA is bad, but SCREEN is even worse, somehow.

Text - S.737 - 119th Congress (2025-2026): SCREEN Act

Text for S.737 - 119th Congress (2025-2026): SCREEN Act

"Sen. Mike Lee has introduced the SCREEN ACT, a bill that applies the "harmful to minors" standard used to ban LGBTQ+ books and resources in schools and libraries and apply it nationally to the internet.

Any site that has any amount of material "harmful to minors" would be forced to employ surveillance tech (biometric scans, ID uploads, background checks) to prevent minors from accessing "pornography."

You will not be surprised to learn that this is backed by the Heritage Foundation.

Unlike some of the state age-verification laws, many of which are being challenged in court, SC will be enforced by the FTC, which has the ability to levy fines, raid business and freeze bank accounts. Yes, meaning that even non-for-profits like Ao3 will suffer.

This is something for all US users to keep on their radar. Call your reps, call your senators, and spread the word to protect our archive!"

- When talking with Republicans play up the fact that this would force Elon to implement age verification systems on X (yes do call it X during the call). Elon's been threatening to primary Republicans who stand in his way so there's fear of him. Also play up concerns about "Liberals" doxxing people or Chinese hackers.

- When talking with Democrats, play up the connections to Project 2025 and suggest voters will not be happy to see Democrats siding with it.

SCRIPT

Hi, my name is [], and I am one of Senator []’s constituents. I live in [city, zip code - leave your full address if leaving a voicemail].

I am calling in regards to a bill that was recently introduced in the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transport: the SCREEN act.

I am asking Senator [] to either take no action or vote against this bill because of its implications for freedom of speech. [insert one of the other concerns listed above]. Thank you for your time and for listening to my concerns.

KOSA again, with a different name… and they’re trying to sneak it past you before July 4th. CALL YOUR REPS!

The KIDS Act Would Require Age Checks To Get Online

Buried inside the KIDS Act are provisions that will push online services to verify all users’ ages, require government-directed moderation p

Like the man said…the shadow takes another form and ruses again. Time to make some calls and let them know we’re watching.

A little reminder to anyone who sees this to call and email their senators/reps about KOSA

This is NOT about protecting anyone. It is mass surveillance and censorship. It hurts minorities and those in creative fields. Not to mention it will also loosen restrictions on ai and their data centers. It doesn't matter if you live outside of America. We've seen what happened with Europe and Australia. Once one law is passed, everywhere else follows.

[h1gh-functioning-flesh]

Hey, so update. It's back and it passed the house.

BUT, We still have time! Continue to call your senators!

[h1gh-functioning-flesh]

As helpful as tonetags are, I absolutely HATE requesting them because there have been one too many times I've been called sensitive for it. Except like I am sensitive and it's because I have obsessive compulsive
