KOSA is coming back and it has gotten more support than ever. The bill has recently gained support from companies such as Twitter, Snapchat, and Microsoft. If this bill continues to gain more and more bipartisan support, the chances of it passing are going to increase. If this bill passes, everyone’s private information is going to be at a high risk and, depending on which state you’re in, very important topics are going to be wiped off of the face of the internet and free speech won’t be an option.

Please, call your senators, send your senators an email, or send a physical letter to your senators. We need to continue fighting and put an end to this dogshit bill.

Do lawmakers even know how stupid KOSA truly is as a bill, if not dangerous. Think about it: having to give ID containing SENSITIVE INFORMATION (literally against Internet Safety 101) just to go on the internet. Being a minor having to do that is so dangerous and would put them in more danger at the hands of predators.

People who have to use the internet for educational uses will have to go through stupid, unneeded steps just to look up the purpose of the mitochondria!

Trans and Queer youth are in danger. Fandom spaces are in danger. Children, the very group of people that this bullshit bill is claiming to protect, are in DANGER!

The States having full monopoly over the internet is so, so ungodly stupid and dystopian. I can’t imagine being someone not from the States and having to witness all of this.

The bill doesn’t protect kids, it only puts them in more danger.

CALL YOUR REPS! SIGN PETITIONS! KEEP KOSA TRENDING! LET PEOPLE KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING!

THIS IS AN ISSUE FOR ALL OF US! NOT JUST A SELECTIVE!

SIMILAR BILLS HAVE HAPPENED BEFORE AND BEEN STOPPED THANKS TO THE INTERNET! LET’S DO THAT AGAIN!

STOP KOSA!

hello brothers and sisters you’re probably well aware of what kosa is after this point, but if you don’t, it’s a bill that is going to be r

OKAY SO GOOD NEWS: THE KOSA HEARING HAS APPARENTLY BEEN MOVED TO MARCH 13-16 INSTEAD!! WE STILL HAVE PLENTY OF TIME!!!

THAT BEING SAID, WE STILL DEFINITELY NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S NOT GOING TO PASS!!

For Palestines sake.

For Yamens sake.

For Congos sake.

For LGBTQIA+ kids and adults alike.

For everyone.

FUCK OFF KOSA, AND FUCK OFF AMERICA!

Just wanted to take a moment to say that if KOSA passes on the 26th, it won't be a law yet. It is in the senate, and will still need to pass in the house. If KOSA passes on the 26th, do not panic, simply start contacting your representatives in the house en masse to tell them to oppose KOSA.

i know many people might know about this, but the shit bill that is kosa has a chance of being put into effect in the next week if that does happen, social media is gonna be almost completely removed. that's not just tumblr or twitter, but things like ao3, deviantART, or tiktok. there's a link on this post to a petition to stop it. it only asks for your email and name, so if you're fine with that, please take the time to sign it.

if it does get passed, i just want to say from the bottom of my heart that this website has given me the best time of my life these past few years. i don't care if you're just randomly finding this post while scrolling, or if you're a long time mutual. i'm gonna miss all of you.

pray that we can still be here by next month.

SIGN THIS PETITION AS AN ATTEMPT TO STOP KOSA--WE'RE GETTING CLOSE!
