Action Alert: Urge Senators to Protect Children

Children are being exposed to pornography at earlier ages and in more extreme forms than ever before. 

Pornography can lead to low self-esteem, mental health problems, addiction, and an increase in problematic sexual activity at younger ages. It can also impact brain development and lead to difficulty in forming and maintaining positive relationships.  

Tragically, studies show that nearly 60% of teens have encountered pornography online accidentally. 

With just a few clicks, kids can find themselves down a rabbit hole of the worst and most extreme forms of pornography. But this isn’t hidden on the deep web. Mainstream sites are laden with videos of rape, trafficking and the exploitation of women and children.

LB 1092 would protect children by requiring pornography websites to have a third-party online age-verification service to prevent anyone younger than 18 from accessing pornographic websites. 

LB 1092 is on the legislative agenda for Monday, and senators need to hear from you.

Similar measures have passed in seven states, and with your help, Nebraska could be next. LB 1092 is on the legislative agenda for Monday, and senators need to hear from you.

Parents deserve to be empowered to protect their kids online. Contact your state senator and urge them to support LB 1092 to provide a minimum level of protection for children and hold companies who profit from knowingly exposing kids to harmful content accountable.
