This Texas bill goes too far and will never fly.

"Today, Representative Jared Patterson filed HB 896 making good on a promise earlier this year to protect children from the harmful mental health effects of social media. HB 896 would prohibit minors from obtaining social media accounts in Texas. Specifically, this legislation seeks to limit social media usage to profile accounts 18 and older, requires profiles to utilize photo identification as a means of age verification, allows parents the opportunity to request account removal of their child, and grants enforcement of deceptive trade practices to the Office of the Attorney General if violated."
