Colo. Senate Passes Bill to Study Social Media Regulation
Colorado senators supported studying social media regulation. They voted 20-14 Monday for an amended bill (SB-132) to set up a committee to report by Jan. 1 on “whether and how the general assembly could address, through legislation, consumer protection concerns related to digital communications platforms,” including Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. Senate President Pro Tempore Kerry Donovan (D) agreed at an earlier meeting to study rather than to regulate immediately (see 2103230070). The bill goes next to the House.
