This is legit scary. Marsha Blackburn is openly admitting that her bill KOSA will be used to drive trans people off the internet.
But Democrats are lining up to support it, and LGBTQIA+ orgs have dropped their opposition. WTF WTF WTF

PS: If you're going to call or write your reps, I would focus heavily on the enforcement mechanism of this bill. It would allow the attorney general of *every single state* to sue over any content they have reason to believe harms kids. This is an open invitation to censorship.
@charliejane Blackburn just did us all a HUGE favor by saying the quiet part out loud. Democrats can no longer pretend that this bill is about protecting children. They have been forced out into the open. If they vote yea on it now, it will be a matter of public record that they knowingly voted to oppress the LGBTQIA+ community, and that doesn't fly in 2023.
