This is great news for the people of our state. The bill certainly isn’t perfect, but this shows that our representatives are listening to us and are at least trying to make things better!
Please DO NOT SUPPORT S.686, The RESTRICT Act. While I strongly oppose TikTok, this Act proposes grave dangers to American Liberty by giving the government wide-reaching powers with little oversight. The government would have power to control and censor information and impose heavy penalties on people who attempt to avoid these powers. This broad Act could destroy the free-speech rights guaranteed by the First Amendment of the US Constitution. Please carefully read, consider the long-term implications of, and strongly oppose this Act!
