Police should be held to the same accountability standards as any other professional, EFF’s Adam Schwartz told @utahnewsdispatch.com. “They’re the ones with a badge and a gun who are enforcing the law. They, more than anyone else, should be following rules.” utahnewsdispatch.com/2025/12/19/...

Ugh, this again. Please tell your senators to grow some common sense and reject KOSA. With all the book bans and other censorship pushes going on right now, preserving access to potentially life-saving resources on the internet (not to mention preserving privacy!) is more important than ever.

🚨‼️As of yesterday KOSA is at 64 cosponsors with @vanhollen.senate.gov + @kim.senate.gov - who claim to support LGTBQ+ rights but are clearly okay with supporting legislation that’ll censor us off the internet- newly signed on.

This is the strategy- ram bills through before the public has had time to know what’s going on.
