The US House of Representatives passed legislation on Monday, June 29, that would require online platforms to provide some safeguards for children, setting up a potential clash with the Senate where lawmakers support more stringent standards.



Congress has taken increasing interest in preventing harm to youth online, as social media companies have faced a backlash.



The House passed the Kids Internet and Digital Safety Act in a 267-117 vote with support from both Democrats and Republicans.
