This bill will censor LGBTQ+ voices and far more. It's a way to heavily restrict the internet not just with respect to harmful content, but also "controversial" content. It also mandates identity verification if you're interacting with that content. It's a deeply regressive way of looking at publishing. There's still time to read up about it and tell your representative that you don't want it passed. [#Democracy](https://werd.io/tag/Democracy)
