NetChoice Seeks Veto of Tenn. Social Media Bill

NetChoice urged Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee (R) to veto a bill requiring age-verification for social media use. In a Monday letter, the tech industry group predicted that HB-1891 “would ultimately be struck down in court as unconstitutional.” But Lee has supported the bill, which would require parental consent for kids younger than 18 on social networks. The legislature approved HB-1891 earlier this month (see 2404160019).
