We applaud the efforts of @RepYvetteClarke to make campaigns more transparent in this age of disinformation. Voters deserve to know what is real and what is fabricated in the realm of political ads.

Parents are rightfully worried about children using unregulated social media. Government must act to protect our youth. Contact your U.S. senators and demand they support the Kids Online Safety Act.

Technology should advance human dignity and liberty – but instead it’s damaging our children’s mental health and our democracy. If we don’t act now, it will only get worse. Join the PLAN to build a better web and a better world.
