Free Speech
Congress Shouldn't Control What We’re Allowed to Read Online

The Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) is back—and it still threatens free expression online. It would let government officials pressure or sue platforms to block or remove lawful content—especially on topics like mental health, sexuality, and drug use.
To avoid liability, platforms will over-censor. When forums or support groups get deleted, it’s not just teens who lose access—we all do. KOSA will also push services to adopt invasive age verification, handing private data to companies like Clear or ID.me.
Lawmakers should reject KOSA. Tell your Senators to vote NO.
KOSA has been reintroduced with the same core problems as before. It still encourages over-removal of legal speech and hands too much power to government officials.
