Data brokers could not keep or share personal data when they know it belongs to someone under 18. Teens and parents could demand deletion, and the broker would have 10 days to act.
Modern Action explains legislation in plain English, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.

Latest action on H.R. 6292: Forwarded by Subcommittee to Full Committee in the Nature of a Substitute (Amended) by Voice Vote.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects data brokers, children and teens, and families. Brokers would have to change how they collect, store, share, and delete data about people under 18. Teens and parents would get a clearer way to remove a minor’s data from broker systems. State and federal enforcers would gain new tools to bring cases.
Why this matters: Children and teens may have personal data collected and sold by companies they never dealt with directly. This bill would cut off much of that data trade when brokers know the person is under 18. It would also give families a direct way to demand deletion. The real effect would depend on enforcement and on how brokers decide whether they know someone is a minor.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
