To anyone cheering against American success in Iran after nearly 50 years of them terrorizing the world: I don't understand your vibe at all.

Banning social media for kids 16 and under is mission-critical for our children and families. Parents shouldn’t have to face off against TikTok, Instagram, and Snapchat by themselves. Right now, adolescence is a battle between adults and algorithms — and no surprise, the algorithms are winning. TikTok and Facebook’s business model is failing our kids. We’ve seen what happens when we give parents a helping hand: teen smoking dropped from the mid-30s to single digits, academic performance improved when we banned phones in classrooms, and drunk-driving fatalities fell when we set designated-driver norms. Parents can’t fight these battles alone. It’s time to step up for our shared values and core principles. Our kids deserve it and our parents demand it.

I could not agree more with this decision. We all know why Dems lost in 2024. The DNC has and should continue to make changes, and that is one of the reasons Dems have been winning up and down the ballot. Let’s stop looking back. Let’s look forward and continue winning.
