In an age where smartphones feel like extensions of our hands, Nebraska lawmakers are stepping into the fray with proposals aimed squarely at safeguarding young minds. Leading the charge, State Sen. Tanya Storer and colleagues are set to introduce legislation requiring parental consent for minors to sign up on social media platforms. That’s alongside measures targeting cellphone policies in schools and outlawing AI-generated child exploitation materials.

The overarching goal? Empower parents and shield children from the digital hazards lurking behind every screen. And if you haven’t been paying attention. Theis wave is forming all around us. It seems inevitable that it will hit North Dakota, too.
