华盛顿,5月26日(路透社)——根据周二公布的一封信函,十余名共和党总检察长表示,他们反对美国众议院共和党议员支持的一项儿童网络安全法案,这暴露了共和党在如何保护儿童网络安全问题上的分歧。

这些总检察长敦促国会不要通过《儿童互联网与数字安全法案》。该法案要求TikTok、Meta等社交媒体平台提供家长控制功能,并限制其收集未成年人数据。共和党总检察长反对该法案的原因是,该法案将限制各州制定自身社交媒体监管法规的权力。

“这项法案不仅未能切实保护儿童,还危及了我们各辖区在一系列科技问题上取得的重大进展,”总检察长们在信中写道。

这封信凸显了共和党内部在社交媒体监管问题上日益加剧的分歧。一方是以总检察长群体以及玛莎·布莱克本、特德·克鲁兹等参议员为代表的阵营,他们认为社交媒体平台若对包括饮食失调和抑郁症在内的一系列未成年人伤害事件负有责任,就应承担更多责任。另一方则是以众议院能源与商业委员会主席布雷特·格思里为代表的共和党人,格思里曾表示,一项范围更广的法案可能会面临法院质疑。

数十名民主党总检察长也在这封信上签了名。共和党签署者名单包括来自田纳西州、阿拉巴马州和犹他州的共和党总检察长——这些州均已通过了针对未成年人屏幕时间的监管法案。

WASHINGTON, May 26 (Reuters) – More than a dozen Republican attorneys general said they oppose a children’s online safety bill backed ​by their party’s members of the U.S. House of Representatives, ‌according to a letter released on Tuesday, exposing a Republican rift over how to keep kids safe online.

The attorneys general urged Congress not to ​pass the Kids Internet and Digital Safety Act, a bill ​that would require social media platforms such as TikTok ⁠and Meta to provide parental controls and curtail their collection ​of minors’ data. The Republican attorneys general oppose the bill because ​it would limit states’ power to pass their own laws regulating social media, according to the letter.

“The bill not only fails to meaningfully protect kids, ​but also, imperils the significant progress our jurisdictions have achieved ​on a wide array of tech issues,” the attorneys general wrote.

The letter demonstrates ‌growing ⁠divisions in the Republican Party about social media regulation. On one side is the group of attorneys general and senators such as Marsha Blackburn and Ted Cruz, who say they want social media ​platforms to take ​more responsibility if ⁠they contribute to a range of harms to minors, including eating disorders and depression. On the ​other side are Republicans such as House Energy ​and ⁠Commerce Chairman Brett Guthrie, who has said that a more expansive bill could face court challenges.

Dozens of Democratic attorneys general also signed ⁠the letter. ​The list of Republican signatories includes ​Republican attorneys general from Tennessee, Alabama and Utah, all states that have passed bills ​regulating screen time for minors.
