Schumer Says Kids’ Online Safety and TikTok are Legislative Priorities

The Senate has an opportunity in the coming “weeks and months” to “make progress” on bipartisan bills related to kids’ online safety and TikTok, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., wrote Friday in a Dear Colleague letter. He mentioned key priorities at the top of the letter, including nominees, impeachment proceedings, foreign intelligence surveillance, the national security supplemental and FAA authorization. He included the kids’ safety and TikTok items with several other legislative proposals. “There are many important, bipartisan issues this Congress could address this year, and I hope our Senate Republican colleagues don’t allow the ultra-right wing of their party to derail progress on these bipartisan bills,” he wrote.
