The U.S. Senate has passed the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) with an overwhelming majority, aiming to regulate tech and social media companies to protect minors online. Despite the strong support in the Senate, the bill faces uncertainty in the House due to ongoing debates over speech and internet regulation.

The legislation's future now hangs in the balance as it moves to the House for consideration.
