H.R. 6488 — RESET Act

Poverty Programs (broad)

What it does

This bill prohibits social media platforms from allowing anyone under 16 to create or maintain an account. Platforms must identify and terminate existing minor accounts within 180 days, delete all personal data collected from those minors, and allow minors a 90-day window to download their data before deletion. The FTC enforces violations as unfair or deceptive practices, and states can sue on behalf of residents.

Quorum's transparency scan gave RESET Act a high transparency warning.
