KOSA passed out of the subcommittee in the House on 13-10 vote. Meaning that they are FINALLY listening to some opposition. But not enough to prevent the other age verification bills from passing, let alone this.
They MUST listen to opposition. Losing this fight is NOT an option.

ATTENTION! The House of Energy and Commerce has pushed a package of(now 18) "child safety" bills to a subcommittee markup.
This means the bills will be likely voted on to go to a FULL committee markup, which sends it out to the House.

![Hello, My name is [Your name] and I am a constituent from[ address, city/town, zip code], and I am calling to urge [you congressman\Senator\Rep] to vote NO against the KIDS ONLINE SAFETY ACT or [Congressman: H.R. 7891] [Senators: S.1748]
This bill would force internet users to submit to invasive ID checks, facial scanning, biometric data collection, and other forms of mass surveillance online in order to access any content or information deemed ‘harmful to minors’ in nature, as well as allow the gov. . The problem with this is: there is no consensus on what content, information, or forms of expression are considered inappropriate for minors. This bill would instead result in websites being blocked from access altogether unless they allow for this mass surveillance to be conducted on their users.
Other bills similar to the KOSA act, such as the Online Safety Act recently enacted in the UK, have been met with overwhelming backlash as a result of its overbearing and invasive mandates- forcing users to submit to facial scans and biometric data collection to access certain content and resources online. Entire websites and resources, such as Wikipedia, as well as smaller, adult-oriented business websites such as breweries and sporting goods stores, have been blocked completely in the UK as a result of being unwilling to submit to these invasive censorship laws, or being unable to afford expensive 3rd party services or softwares to verify and collect data on their users.

– Sammy’s law (H.R.2657)

-GAMING ACT(HR 6265)
-Parents over platforms act
These bills all threaten to impose online ID tracking, mass surveillance, censorship of content online that the government disagrees with, blocking or removal of websites from the internet, and the criminalization of any content that is deemed pornographic in nature, respectively. These policies violate first amendment protections for speech, expression, and the arts, and threaten to chill speech online as well as offline.
