Blackburn Statement on Landmark Social Media Addiction Case Verdict

WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) released the following statement after a California jury found Meta and Google liable in the landmark social media addiction trial for designing their products to addict young users: "Today-s verdict marks a monumental victory for parents, children, families, and survivors who have taken Big Tech to court to demand accountability after having the door slammed in their face by these social media companies for years," said Senator Blackburn . "Big Tech has done everything in its power to blame parents and children instead of taking responsibility for designing their products to addict and harm children. Now that Big Tech has been found liable for the harms they have pushed on our kids, it-s time for Congress to enshrine protections for American families into law by passing the Kids Online Safety Act." Today, Senator Blackburn called on Senate Commerce Committee Chairman Ted Cruz (R-Texas) to advance the Senate version of the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) out of the committee.
