Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
This bill would repeal Section 230 of the Communications Act of 1934, a decades-old legal provision that shields online platforms and websites from liability for content posted by users. The repeal would take effect two years after enactment, giving platforms a transition period. The bill makes conforming changes to other federal laws—including the Trademark Act, copyright law, and provisions addressing illegal content—to replace references to Section 230 with alternative definitions. The legislation was introduced in December 2025 with bipartisan support from ten senators, including members from both parties. If enacted, this would fundamentally alter how internet platforms operate by making them potentially liable for user-generated content, which could significantly impact social media companies, forums, and other interactive websites.
