.@jimsteyer has it exactly right. Just like there are rules for children’s television, we need rules for kids on the internet. My #KIDSAct will put into place strict rules to keep kids safe from manipulative marketing and design practices online. https://t.co/8dyKHnpDEh — PolitiTweet.org

Parents should know what videos appear on the websites their kids view. The #KIDSAct will create transparency by establishing an annual audit of content being served to kids and creating a labeling system so parents can know if they are being exposed to harmful material. https://t.co/ho5jH5TdXU — PolitiTweet.org

Building on funding I first secured in '18 @NIH is starting its first clinical trial of a universal flu vaccine. This would be an historic breakthrough that would save millions of lives. I’ll keep fighting to secure funds @NIH needs to make this a reality. https://t.co/JwvhZaamwB — PolitiTweet.org

Websites and apps are using features like auto-play to manipulate kids into staying on their platforms as long as possible. My #KIDSAct will ban these damaging features on platforms for kids so they don’t develop unhealthy habits. https://t.co/Qa9Asn9G4K — PolitiTweet.org

Fuel economy emissions standards are the single greatest action ever taken by any nation to fight climate change. That’s why @SenFeinstein, @SenKamalaHarris & I have introduced legislation to block Trump’s attempts to roll back strong emissions standards. https://t.co/nZ0Uj0BT6Q — PolitiTweet.org

Ed Markey @SenMarkey

Right now, parents can’t trust that their kids are safe from harmful content when using the internet. We need to change that. I’ll soon be introducing the Kids Internet Design and Safety (KIDS) Act to enact strong rules to keep kids safe online. #KIDSAct @TODAYshow https://t.co/AbW7iMvNHF — PolitiTweet.org

I know you will clear this hurdle and bring a renewed passion and dedication to your work when you’re soon back on the Senate floor. Thank you for sharing your news and being an inspiration not just for Colorado, but for the entire country. The strength of the nation is with you. — PolitiTweet.org

By requesting Trump’s tax returns, Congress is prepared to shine a bright light on the truth about the President’s finances and do its duty to ensure executive accountability. And I couldn’t think of a better person to lead the way than my friend Chairman @RepRichardNeal. — PolitiTweet.org

Gay marriage. Family separation. The Muslim ban. DACA. Federal district court judges make the first decisions in the country’s most important cases. And @SenateGOP just limited debate on the confirmation of district court nominees to only 2 hours. This will hurt us for decades. — PolitiTweet.org
