Hey..I have a question for you : if they pass the Kosa bill then,they will not be enforced until 18 months after it is instated..This is true?
I saw on "hearing and meetings" that the hearing will be until April 17..
Yes, it sounds stupid and maybe it’s not true, but I’m very afraid and not ready to lose the Internet.I really don't know which information is true (because some of it is a lie).In addition, everyone is in a panic and everyone claims that after this date we will lose the Internet forever..Everyone says that we can stop the Kosa bill or something like that, but I doubt it…I'm against Kosa, but I'm still afraid
It is completely okay to be fearful. However, those who say that it is all over if KOSA gets passed are wrong. We can keep fighting back by protesting and making them hear us.
However going to the information bit...
As of right now, KOSA has not left the senate.
On April 17th, an entirely different thing will be discussed. The only thing that I saw that could potentially be KOSA is on the 10th.
If KOSA is voted on that day, majority needs to support it. And even if it passes senate, then it needs to go through the other steps to become a law on a national scale. We have time.
And yes, it says in the bill it will be put into effect 18 months after it becomes law.
Warning: I am getting into rant territory, if you do not want to read it, scroll on. There are resources at the very bottom.
I encourage you all to do your own research. Read laws, spread awareness, and make your own posts sharing what you know to be true. Fight misinformation. Misinformation is what kills a cause.
People saying that the fight is over if KOSA gets past is making people want to stop fighting. They think that they all be powerless after the proverbial event, but that's not true. We can keep fighting even after the law is potentially put in place.
Keep calling your reps, keep protesting, keep fighting.
STOP INTERNET CENSORSHIP DISCORD
Use left if your rep is democratic, use right if republican.
