Over the past year, the LGBTQ+ community has been targeted by a wave of abuse centered on the false and hateful lie that they âgroomâ children, often directed at teachers, Pride events and drag story hour events.

We joined partners and youth organizations to help pass the #CAKidsCode in California to require online platforms to prioritize young peopleâs safety by design and default. The bipartisan law offers a roadmap for more states to protect young users. nytimes.com/2022/09/15/busâŠ
