Hi ladies, GFWC Texas President Barbara Harvey requested the following message from Mary Pat Marchello to be posted to Facebook.
Please review the following message at your convenience:
The GFWC Legislation/Public Policy Committee is excited to announce that a Legislative Alert has been distributed which supports legislation urging the passage of the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA, S. 1748) which establishes a legally relevant “duty of care” for social media companies, requiring platforms to alter design features such as algorithms that harm children. The bill is written to especially protect marginalized and vulnerable children from rampant online harms like child sexual exploitation, romantic fantasies, illicit drugs, su***de instruction, harassment, eating disorder content, and more.
We hope that all members who have registered for the GFWC Legislation Action Center will participate in this process.

Will you join us in this effort and encourage your members to respond to the Alert and use this as an opportunity to encourage more clubwomen to join the Legislative Action Center.
Raise Our United Voices!
Mary Pat Marcello
2024-2026 GFWC Legislation/Public Policy Chairman
