Even were Blackburn's gambit to be successful, Senate KOSA would face heavy opposition in the House, which has acknowledged many of the free speech concerns. Unfortunately it's nigh impossible to fix a bill when its primary purpose is censorship: platformpolemics.aricohn.com/p/the-kids-a...

The KIDS Act Is Just as Unconstitutional as KOSA ... Just in Different Words

Today Senator Blackburn is expected to try ramming KOSA--the Kids Online Safety Act--through the Senate via unanimous consent. KOSA was an Internet censorship bill in its inception, and in 4 years the only thing its authors have done is try to disguise KOSA's nature rather than fix it.

We made a highlight reel of our favorite recent @aricohn.com tweets. We also agree this season of Heated Rivalry sucks ass. Stay tuned for more information about our March 11th event!

FALS hosted speakers from the Abundance Institute, Chamber of Progress, and the Cato Institute. Students learned about policy jobs, age verification, and AI policy not just in the United States, but around the world. Thank you to speakers and exec board for putting this event together!

Minnesota makes one thing clear: unchecked federal power threatens civil liberties across the political spectrum. Recording law enforcement is protected speech, and conflicting official statements only deepen public distrust. We hope you’ll read our statement and join us in this important dialogue.

We were honored to host Santana Boulton from @techfreedom.org today as our inaugural speaker! Today’s conversation focused on age verification and the questions it raises. It is inspiring to see students engage with First Amendment law. We look forward to sharing more details about the spring soon!

FALS is now live! We founded the First Amendment Law Society to protect uncomfortable, unpopular, and unfiltered speech in an age of government censorship. No allegiance to ideology—just the Constitution. Say it. Mean it. Make it Matter.
