Democrats Should Be Stopping A Lawless President, Not Helping Censor The Internet, Honestly WTF Are They Thinking | Techdirt

2025-02-06 15:34:09+00:00

The bill, which is a “bi-partisan” bill initially pushed by Democratic Senator Brian Schatz (in partnership with fellow Dem Chris Murphy, along with Republicans Ted Cruz and Katie Britt) is sort of a an attempt to create a “more palatable” version of KOSA, but which is still a censorship bill at its core.

KOSMA reared its ugly head again this morning in a Senate mark-up session and passed through it easily with Democrat support and no debate at all (barely even a mention of it). And even if some of that support may have been superficially pro forma, to move the Senate along so that it could get to addressing the larger issues at hand, any support was still too much support for what this bill proposes to do.
