This is your daily reminder to stop kosa. Email your reps or go to badinternetbills.com/ and it will send the email for you. You can also edit what it will say in the email.
Also share information about kosa and how to stop it with everyone, you could reblog or just post your own post on your blog or text a friend. Even telling one person makes a difference.
Don't know who your rep is/their email?https://www.house.gov/representatives

If you're reading this, let me have a moment of your time.
Hello, I'm here to talk about HB3. You're probably wondering what HB3 is (since barely anyone's talking about it), to give a basic rundown on what this thing is, HB3 is a law that's similar to KOSA. Except it's for Florida exclusively. It aims to “protect” minors online by making them more unsafe. Like taking away safe spaces and crucial information.
If you live in Florida, don't give up or panic! iirc, it's having legal trouble due to it being unconstitutional. But Don't feel relieved yet, Kansas has done something similar (I'll probably talk about that later)
Now is there anything that we can do? Of course! But we can't call them since it already passed as a law (I think) the most we can do is protest and spread awareness. If you have friends or mutuals in Florida let them know!!
If there's any petitions to sign to get rid of HB3/any info I got wrong please let me know
If this post is janky it's because it was hastily written by a very paranoid teenager,, srry

Something to keep in mind is that KOSA is supported by both Republicans and Democrats according to the Cosponsors list from the bill. It isn't just one party or the other, is both that support this.
You can check the whole list of Cosponsors here (same website that keeps tracks of changes in bills):

So uh update everyone
From what I can tell nothing happened with kosa
It hasn’t passed house it hasn’t passed senate (btw I found this on the official website)
So I’m 99% sure it was just a normal hearing today and that they didn’t vote on it
Also I couldn’t find anything about it passing today
But I will keep y’all updated!

Adding on from my last post about KOSA:
I know that many people think that if KOSA gets pushed through the Committee hearing next Wednesday--April 17th, then the Internet will instantly disappear...It won't. People tend to forget that there are many hoops a bill has to jump through in order to become a law. First, it has to be voted through the Committee, next it goes to the House of Representatives, next the Senate, then it goes back to the House for review, then it goes to the President to sign and even then, it takes about *18 months for it go into effect. **If I recall correctly, it may differ for each state. My point is, It will be a while before we see any real changes...but that doesn't mean we give up!
Tumblr media
Here is the number for the Committee holding the hearing next Wednesday: (202) 225-3641; Call them. Urge the Committee to vote 'NO' to KOSA--as well as the Protecting Kids on Social Media Act (Leave your zip code so it'll count!) Remember: There is much less support for KOSA in the House of Representatives than the Senate. And, of course, Continue to call your Senators & your House Representative! Can't find your reps? This handy site lets you look them up via your address: https://www.congress.gov/members/find-your-member
Please spread this around as well. Don't panic. The only reason KOSA hasn't passed yet is because people have been vocal about it. Keep calling! Keep making noise!
Stay strong & keep fighting!

Small reminder to stay calm even if the bill does get approved tomorrow.
Remember, the bill still has a very long way to go before it becomes an official law all around the U.S., and even if it does get to the president, there will be a very long 18 month time-frame where we can fight as much as we possibly can in order for it to be revoked (remember all of the other laws and bills in the past that got revoked because of protests).
Listen, I get that you're scared. I get that you're scared of losing everything that you've worked for, and that's okay. But thinking that it's all over by tomorrow if it gets approved is not a very good mindset to have. Remember, the reason why it hasn't gotten approved yet is because we've all been speaking out against it and refusing to back down even when it seems hopeless. Be optimistic. Be confident in everyone around you working with you in order to succeed in not letting these terrible bills pass.
It's not just KOSA you should be fighting against either. There are many bills like the recent FISA ACT and the Earn It Act that are also threats to our rights. Please advocate against those just as much as you've done for KOSA. Let's fight for our futures together as one.
Thank you, and have a good day/afternoon/night. Don't lose hope now!

Ok, What in the absolute Fuck.
So, I only just recently learned about the "Kids Online Safety Act."
What. An Absolute. Load. Of BULLSHIT.
This isn't PROTECTING kids! This is putting them in more danger!
God damn, if this fucking bill ACTUALLY gets passed...
Tumblr media
Just... LOOK at this! What kind of LUNATIC thinks this will be ok? You're telling me these IDIOTS are SO stuck in the past they're going to try and CENSOR the FUCKING INTERNET? If you care SOOO much about Kids being SAFE, THEN FUCKING LEAVE THEM ALONE! GOD!
STOP KOSA. PLEASE. NOTHING GOOD IS GOING TO COME FROM THIS.

STOP KOSA
The thing about KOSA that makes me feel the worst is that I am helpless. I am not an American. I have no power to change the votes or reps. But the internet and social media are used by everyone.
Please. If you have the power. Email your representatives, vote against this bill.
Because so many of us don't have that power
If we lose the internet as it is now. We lose some of the most important resources we have in our modern day. Widespread information, online communities, connections to others that are different than us, online safety, understanding.
Movements like Free Palestine will be censored, LGBTQ topics and protection online will be exposed, we will lose millions of posts on these subjects.
Please, please, we don't have much time.

"I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it"
-Evelyn Beatrice Hall, The Friends of Voltaire
The first amendment allows us to say what we want, whenever we want, without our government punishing us for our words. KOSA, therefore, is violating our first amendment rights. It's mass censorship of the internet, and our right to freedom of speech is being suppressed BY THE GOVERNMENT. Our founding fathers created this as THE FIRST AMENDMENT, and clearly thought this was important. Oh, wouldn't they be disappointed to see what their descendants are doing now. KOSA, a mass censorship bill that will contradict our constitution as we know it. KOSA, which instead of protecting the kids is in fact putting them in harms way. KOSA, which will put so so many people in danger. And we can stop it, but we have to fight. We MUST fight
To hear one voice clearly, we must have the freedom to hear them all
