Please make sure to call your representatives to stand against this bill, because it isn't really "Protecting the Kids" as they say. It's just another step towards Censorship.

KOSA has been brought back, and we need to be LOUD more then ever! It's nothing more than an internet censorship bill, violating our 1st Amendment, and we cannot allow it to pass!

Call and email your rep, and tell them to OPPOSE KOSA (as well as any other bills like it)! #SaveSpeech #StopKOSA

SESTA/FOSTA backfired miserably.

The UK's age verification law backfired miserably.

The TikTok ban is backfiring miserably.

So of course @blumenthal.senate.gov has decided now is a great time to revive the terribly written Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) which will ... spoiler... backfire miserably

Please call your reps about KOSA today. Especially if they're Republican. This is THE priority

alpha @omarsbigsister.bsky.social · 11d

Are you kidding me right now? This is the last thing we need. KOSA is back no thanks to Senator Blumenthal who is working with the GOP and bringing in Republican Senators to convince the House to support it.

Please, CALL GOP House leadership and tell them to keep opposing it!

when you make your calls today, continue to hammer that trans healthcare cannot be thrown under the bus for the sake of business as usual, and that KOSA must be opposed

however, additionally, if your senator voted against the funding plan, I think you should tell them "thank you".

NJ PBS shutting down next summer.

“15yrs ago Gov. Christie ended 4 decades of state funding for public TV, forcing them to find a new funder. The state cut $750k in funding this yr, but that was hardly the fatal blow; that came from the end of federal funds.”

The closure of New Jersey PBS is a loss for all of us who live here. Their programming benefits all New Jerseyans young and old.

I’ll continue to stand up to the attacks on public broadcasting and support local networks in Jersey and across the country.

Anybody else grow up on PBS and know the words “brought to you by viewers like you?”

Anyone else realize that today is the day to bring PBS to viewers like us?

As a benefit, donating to your local broadcasting station gets you access to a PBS passport, which includes tons of documentaries🖤

This is what the Republicans and Trump regime intend to replace public education with.

Just more GOP propaganda.

Some states have already signed signed contracts with this ultra conservative “university” to replace PBS.

Unsurprisingly states with lowest education levels are launching first.

MAGA's war on the arts: Masterpiece Theater, Great Performances, & P.O.V are reasons enough to treasure PBS; but consider: BALLAD OF GREGORIO CORTEZ, HEARTLAND, TESTAMENT, EL NORTE, SMOOTH TALK, GAL YOUNG 'UN, STAND & DELIVER, & THE THIN BLUE LINE are among films that debuted on American Playhouse.
