Summary
House lawmakers agreed on a bipartisan rewrite of H.R. 7757, advancing a package that includes the high-profile Kids Online Safety Act.
More than a dozen bills are bundled into the measure, which is designed to tighten online safety and privacy protections for children and teenagers on social media platforms.
Energy and Commerce Chair Brett Guthrie and ranking member Frank Pallone announced the deal Monday, signaling cross-party momentum on a key congressional tech-policy priority.
The agreement still leaves Congress to reconcile the House approach with the Senate's version of KOSA before any final legislation can be enacted.
