Key Democrats Warn Against Advancing KIDS Act Amid Lobbying Concerns

  • Sen. Richard Blumenthal and Sen. Maria Cantwell caution that the KIDS Act may face heavy lobbying from tech companies if passed by the House.
  • They emphasize the absence of a 'duty of care' provision, which is crucial for protecting children's safety online.
  • The House version of the KIDS Act is set for a vote next week, but lawmakers are urging opposition to prevent a flawed bill from advancing.
