The House passed a sprawling package of kids online safety bills Monday night, marking the first time a version of the landmark Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) made it out of the lower chamber.
The House passed the Kids Internet and Digital Safety (KIDS) Act in a 267-117 vote, with 47 members not voting.
The package, taken from portions of 14 digital safety bills, was brought to the floor Monday under a fast-track process called suspension of the rules, which requires two-thirds majority support for passage.
