We’re one signature away from some of the strongest AI and online safety protections for kids in the US. Ask @GavinNewsom to sign AB 1064 and AB 56 to hold big tech accountable.

News reports of deaths related to #AI chatbots should be setting off alarm bells. But the use of AI, including general purpose chatbots like ChatGPT, for companionship is unacceptably risky for teens. Read more in my op-ed for @techpolicypress : techpolicy.press/ai-companie…

Thank you to @CommonSense, @EncodeAction, @ncypalliance and the 130+ organizations who joined together today calling on Congress to stop the AI law moratorium.
A ban on AI laws threatens kids, workers, and Americans from every state.

The Republicans' proposed budget, now heading to the Senate, would ban states from regulating AI for a full DECADE.
But a new poll from @CommonSense finds that concern about the effects of AI on kids and teens is widespread and bipartisan.
We can beat this and protect kids.

New polling for @CommonSense on AI and state regulation! I was interested in how Republicans would shake out in the tension between aversion to regulation vs. states' rights/potential risks to kids and teens. Take a look at the results... commonsensemedia.org/press-r…

Experts and advocates agree:
We need bell-to-bell restrictions on cell phones in schools to protect our kids and ensure distraction-free learning.
I'm proud to stand with @CommonSense and tens of thousands of parents to fight for our kids.
