Texas lawmakers are making significant progress with a proposed bill aimed at banning minors from using social media platforms. The bill has passed in the House and is now set to be debated in the Senate. If approved, Texas would become the first state to implement such stringent restrictions, which would bar anyone under 18 from access while also requiring age verification. This legislation has reignited discussions around safety, parental control, and the rights of young users online, with varied opinions surfacing across the state and beyond.
