Florida Governor Ron DeSantis just signed into law HB 3, a bill that will give parents of teens under 16 more control over their kids’ access to social media and require age verification for many websites. The bill requires social media platforms to prevent kids under 14 from creating accounts, and delete existing ones.
He signed the Parental Rights in Education Act in 2022, which opponents call the “Don’t Say Gay” law, that bars schools from discussing sexual orientation or gender identity for some grades. Another bill DeSantis approved strengthened parents’ ability to challenge books in school libraries and reading lists. Florida’s action follows other states’ moves to limit teen social media access or require greater parental insight into their kids’ online activities.
