Every year, Chuck commits to traveling to all62 counties in New York to meet with constituents.
On September 4th, 2024, Standing at Pine Grove Middle School united with parents, teachers, students, and advocates, U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer called on the U.S. House of Representatives to stop delays and immediately pass the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) and the Children and Teens’ Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA 2.0), which he led to overwhelming bipartisan passage in the Senate with over 90 votes.
Schumer explained these bipartisan bills represent some of the most robust federal tech reforms for children in decades, and will institute a set of safeguards, accountability, and privacy measures that shield children in New York and across the country from the harms associated with social media companies and other online platforms. Amid reports the House will not bring forward this lifesaving legislation, Schumer is leading the charge in pushing the House to act and bring forth the Senate passed bill for a vote immediately to protect the safety of our kids online.
