Legislative Review – Youth Online Privacy Bill & Public Safety Tax Proposal

We cover two major bills making their way through the state legislature:


Senate Bill 5708 – A new proposal aimed at protecting minors from addictive online behaviors and limiting tech companies’ data collection practices. Supporters call it a step forward for youth mental health, while opponents argue it raises constitutional concerns.


House Bill 2015 – A proposed sales and use tax to fund law enforcement and criminal justice services. Advocates say it will help recruit and retain officers, while critics warn of excessive taxation. 2/27/25
