Watch recording of the event.

November 9, 2023 3-4 pm EST

Event Description: When social media becomes monetized, influencing becomes an industry. But often, the child stars of monetized social media accounts have no legal privacy protections or avenues to the revenue they help generate. Join moderators Leah Plunkett and Jenn Louie as well as panelists Chris McCarty (student founder and executive director of Quit Clicking Kids), Washington State Representative Kristine Reeves, Illinois Senator David Koehler, and Shreya Nallamothu to discuss the urgent need for protective legislation.
