Compelling column by Board Member Margaret Elias urging Congress to pass the App Store Accountability Act to better protect kids from online dangers and hate. @SenAlexPadilla & @SenAdamSchiff — let’s get this done. 🔗 coastalsearchlight.com/protecting-you…

@TomSteyer Your campaign TV ads tout “free lunches for every kid” while tens of thousands of CA low-income public virtual students are denied school meals due to outdated federal policy. What say you? #ITrustParents parentsforschooloptions.org/post/new-natio…

Despite decades of federal commitment to protecting children from hunger, more than 500,000 eligible public virtual school students are still being denied access to school meals solely because of how they learn. Why? #ITrustParents parentsforschooloptions.org/post/new-natio…

@HouseCommerce hearing, experts reaffirmed basics 4 parents: repeated age checks across every app make no sense. App Store Accountability Act provides a unified reliable verification point. @JayObernolte @DorisMatsui @RepRaulRuizMD @RepScottPeters @RepBarragan @RepKevinMullin

We Trust Parents! This week, we’re celebrating parents who know that school choice isn’t simply a preference — it’s a pathway to a brighter future for their children. #itrustparentsweek

Internet-safety bills are moving thru Congress but some have serious flaws. App Store Accountability Act gets it right-empower parents w/out invasive monitoring. @HouseCommerce must prioritize. @JayObernolte @DorisMatsui @RepRaulRuizMD @RepScottPeters @RepBarragan @RepKevinMullin

CPPVE has long advocated for federal funding to expand school meal access for our students. It will continue to remain a policy priority in 2026. Parents know what their children need — and it’s time for Congress and the USDA to listen! #ITrustParents

Good read for parents by our friend, @lancelands CPC Vice President of Education Policy. #ITrustParents edsource.org/2025/newsom-tr…

Tell Congress that no child should go hungry because they learn online. Let’s ensure that every child who qualifies for school meals actually receives them, regardless of where they attend school. #itrustparents campaigns.civiclick.com/c3dee549-b927-…

Thank you, Governor @GavinNewsom, for signing AB 1043 into law — a big win for online teen safety! This new law helps protect students in virtual learning environments while supporting responsible digital citizenship. #ITrustParents

Thank you, Governor @GavinNewsom, for vetoing SB 414, harmful legislation that would have hurt students and families choosing virtual public schools. Your decision protects equitable access to quality online learning in California. 💻 #ITrustParents

As parents, we want real tools to protect our kids online—not annoying pop-ups which they'll learn to dismiss in seconds. AB 56 is not a practical solution. There are better approaches available.#SignAB1043 #VetoAB56 @CAgovernor @JenSiebelNewsom
