062326 Don't Give Meta Legal Immunity for Harming Kids(AC JA)
Meta — the parent company of Facebook and Instagram — is trying to use Congress to escape accountability for harms to children.
After juries found Meta liable in major child safety cases, the company is now lobbying Congress for legal immunity from lawsuits alleging online harm to kids.
That means families, states, and survivors could lose one of the most important tools they have to hold Big Tech accountable when platforms put profit ahead of child safety.
Congress should be strengthening online safety laws, not slipping in language that shields one of the most powerful corporations in the world from lawsuits over harm to children.
Tell Congress: Reject any provision that gives Meta or other tech companies immunity from child safety lawsuits.
In solidarity,
