HB 464 (Social Media Regulation Amendments)

Libertas Institute opposes this bill.

This bill would create private action lawsuits against social media companies with teen users, which creates a Constitutionally suspect requirement for companies to engage in age verification for all users.

Libertas Institute opposes this bill. This bill creates legal liability for all social media companies with teens on their site, which will force companies to verify age to minimize legal risk. Such verification, as a result of regulation, likely violates the First Amendment.
