California considers bill to mandate mental health warnings on social media to protect kids.
California is considering a bill to require mental health warnings on social media, aiming to protect children's mental health. Sponsored by Attorney General Rob Bonta, the bill would make California the first US state with such a requirement. It gained support from various attorneys general after the US Surgeon General highlighted social media's role in the mental health crisis among young people. Critics argue the bill could face First Amendment challenges. If passed, warning labels could appear once a week on social media sites.
