Mandatory Mental Health Warning Labels on Social Media Platforms.
This bill mandates that social media platforms display a clear mental health warning label every time a user accesses the service. Users must actively acknowledge the potential risks before proceeding, aiming to encourage informed decisions about screen time. The warning must also provide immediate access to mental health crisis resources, such as the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline.
