Impossible to describe how HUGE this is. State AGs just pulled off what the federal government could never
teapaw.org/Variety/status/2092610…
Meta will enforce a two-hour daily limit on Instagram and Facebook for children as part of a record $17.1B settlement with 29 states over social media addiction claims:
• The “Productive Pauses” for children include mandatory pauses after 15 minutes of continuous use and again at 60 and 90 minutes to interrupt endless scrolling
• “Nighttime blocks” restricting children’s access from 12:00 a.m. to 6:00 a.m.
• Limited school-time access for children, eliminating push notifications on weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. during the school year
• Robust age assurance measures to more effectively verify the age of young users
• Safer, age-appropriate content controls, including stronger safeguards against bullying, content promoting eating disorders, and content related to suicide and self-harm
• Stronger, more user-friendly parental controls
• Limits on social comparison features, including beauty filters and visible “like” counts, that have been linked to poor mental health outcomes in kids and teens
• Both the implementation and effectiveness of the features will be regularly assessed by an independent auditor and the settling states

Three years ago, Massachusetts made history by inaugurating its first woman of color to statewide office.
Since day one, I’ve led with urgency, empathy, and a simple belief: this job is about making life better for people.
And we’re just getting started.

Trump continues to use the court system to play political games, but Democratic attorneys general like @AJCampbellMA are standing strong and fighting back against attacks on our rights and freedoms.

Massachusetts AG Campbell: What you heard from the president and the speaker is total bullshit.
Never in the history of this country — during a war or an emergency shutdown — has the federal government ever stopped funding SNAP benefits for our most vulnerable.

Folks don’t need an “affordability message.” They need things to actually be affordable!

After the Trump admin made an unprecedented decision to suspend food assistance for millions of Americans, @AJCampbellMA co-led 26 states in taking the admin to court. (And she won.)

Massachusetts AG: Never in the history of our country have we ever had SNAP benefits not go out to recipients, even during a government shutdown. We had to file a lawsuit to hold this administration accountable and to turn those resources on. This administration has caused additional delay by not fully funding benefits for November, even though they have billions of dollars to do so.
Ronja Abel retweeted
SNAP recipients are anxiously awaiting their next payments as the government shutdown hits day 37.
The Trump admin says they will partially cover 65% of the benefits for November.
Massachusetts AG Andrea Campbell (D) joins @AnaCabrera to discuss.

While political discourse since ‘24 has been almost exclusively focused on men & their shifting partisan alliances, women voters powered Spanberger and Sherrill’s routs in VA/NJ. Spanberger won women by 30 points; Sherrill by 24 points.
