Censorship Does Not Keep Kids Safe

The message:

The Senate passed the Kids Online Safety Act, an alarming bill that would give the government the power to decide what content is dangerous to young people, enabling censorship, and violating our First Amendment right to freely access information.

Lawmakers claim KOSA will protect kids online. However, in reality, it would threaten young people's privacy, limit minors' access to vital resources, such as mental health materials or gender identity support, and silence important online conversations for all ages.

The First Amendment guarantees everyone, including children, the right to access information free from censorship – yet KOSA flies in the face of this.

Now it's up to the House to protect free speech online. Send a message to your representative now and encourage them to vote NO on the Kids Online Safety Act.

ABOUT HONORIFIC TITLES

Many public officials use "web mail forms" that this system will send your message to, so you don't have to visit their web sites to communicate with them. The systems that some of these officials use requires that the honorific field be used (Mr., Mrs., Miss, etc.).

Unfortunately, we do not have control of which honorific titles are presented as options. We must adhere to what the officials are using in order for your message to be delivered.

Alternate salutation

Most elected officials’ constituent email systems accept a very limited set of salutations. Please select the one you would most prefer.
