加州总检察长等45人联署国会:支持联邦儿童网络安全法为平台设注意义务

加利福尼亚州总检察长Rob Bonta 11月4日加入全美45位州总检察长的联署,支持联邦参议院版《儿童网络安全法》(Kids Online Safety Act,法案编号S.1748)进入表决。该法案要求社交平台对未成年用户负起注意义务,防范平台设计对儿童造成伤害。
联署信指出,联邦立法应为全国设定统一底线,同时不预占各州更严格的法律。加州现行的《保护我们的孩子免于社交媒体成瘾法》(SB 976)与AB 56等州法,管制力度高于联邦草案,联署方强调联邦法通过后这些州法仍然有效。
Bonta办公室并提到,今年8月,包括加州在内的51位总检察长与Meta达成170亿美元和解,处理该公司平台对青少年用户影响的相关指控。联署方呼吁国会尽快推进这部已获两党支持的法案。

California Attorney General Among 45 Backing Federal Kids Online Safety Act's Duty of Care for Platforms
California Attorney General Rob Bonta on November 4 joined 45 state attorneys general in urging Congress to advance the federal Kids Online Safety Act (S.1748), which would impose a duty of care on social media platforms to prevent harms to minors arising from platform design.
The coalition letter argues that federal legislation should set a national floor without preempting stronger state laws. California's Protecting Our Kids from Social Media Addiction Act (SB 976) and AB 56 impose stricter requirements than the federal bill, and the attorneys general stressed those state laws would remain in force.
Bonta's office also pointed to an August settlement in which 51 attorneys general, including California's, reached a $17 billion resolution with Meta over allegations concerning its platforms' effects on young users. The coalition called on Congress to move the bipartisan bill forward.
