Texas state Representative Jared Patterson stated that he intends to introduce legislation that would ban anyone under the age of 18 from using social media.
“I’ll be introducing legislation next session to ban minors from using social media,” the Republican member of the Texas House of Representatives tweeted on Tuesday. “It’s long past time to recognize the incredible harm social media is doing to the mental health of young Texans. Next session, we put an end to it”.
