Every social media company would have to set up a dedicated online portal with a 24/7 U.S.-based phone line so law enforcement can reach them fast. A new FTC advisory committee would create standard metrics to track how platforms handle illegal content, especially drug sales. Platforms that don't follow the rules could face FTC enforcement.
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.
SOCIAL MEDIA Act is a Senate bill in committee. The latest recorded action: Read twice and referred to the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation.
Latest action on S. 626: Read twice and referred to the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects social media companies, which would need to build and staff new law enforcement contact systems and produce detailed public reports. Law enforcement agencies at every level would gain a clearer, faster path to reach platforms during investigations. Users of social media platforms could see changes in how companies monitor and report illegal activity on their services.
Why this matters: Right now, there's no standard way for police to quickly reach social media companies during criminal investigations, and the public has little visibility into how platforms handle illegal content. This bill would create a uniform system so law enforcement can contact platforms 24/7, and it would make platform performance data public for the first time. That could change how fast police get the information they need in drug trafficking cases and give policymakers real data to compare how different companies respond.
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.
