House concurs with Senate on social‑media protections for minors; bill repassed 131–2

House File 4138, described on the floor as a bill to address harms associated with addictive social media and to require parental permission for accounts for minors 15 and under, was presented with Senate amendments. Representative Scott, the House author, said the Senate amendment removed a "threat alert" provision from the House bill and urged members to concur.

"This is the social media bill, the stop the harms of addictive social media bill to be precise," Representative Scott said, asking members to support concurrence. On the floor, Representative Smith and other members thanked the author and urged a green vote.

The House concurred in the Senate amendments and repassed the bill as amended; the clerk announced the final roll as 131 ayes and 2 nays.

The transcript records floor support for a parental‑permission requirement for under‑15 accounts and a general framing that the bill will "protect our kids online." The House’s concurrence sends the amended bill onward per the legislative process.
