"DeSantis Vetoes Florida Bill Banning Social Media for Kids Under 16"

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis vetoed a bill that would have prohibited residents under 16 from opening accounts on social media platforms like TikTok and Instagram, even with parental permission. DeSantis stated that the Legislature is working on a different bill that respects parental rights. The vetoed bill faced opposition from parents' groups and would likely have faced constitutional challenges over young people's rights to access information.
