Attorney General Letitia James stated, "Young people across our country are struggling, and these addictive social media algorithms are only making this mental health crisis worse. New York has led the nation in our efforts to protect kids from online harm, but everyone needs to know the risk associated with these social media platforms." This emphasizes the critical need for warning labels to inform users of the risks tied to social media use.
The coalition's letter to Congress, inspired by U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy's recommendation, outlines the necessity of informing users about potential mental health harms. This initiative is positioned within a broader framework aimed at holding social media companies accountable and enhancing oversight to ensure a safer online environment for youth.
