Parents deserve both clarity and control over how their children interact with AI chatbots, which are becoming more integrated into their education and everyday lives. Our bipartisan bill provides commonsense guardrails that prioritize kids' safety, limit manipulative design, and help ensure that parents—not algorithms—hold the reins.

AI Verified Confirmed: the official Curtis Senate press release contains the exact two-sentence statement and attributes it to Senator Curtis ("said Senator Curtis"); a Senate Commerce Committee release dated April 28, 2026 reproduces the same wording. ([curtis.senate.gov](https://www.curtis.senate.gov/press-releases/curtis-colleagues-introduce-bill-giving-parents-control-over-kids-ai-chatbot-use/)) · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 14d ago
AI Verified Quote attributed to Sen. John Curtis (R-UT), year 2026. The curtis.senate.gov source URL returned HTTP 403 to WebFetch, but a web search confirmed the quote verbatim (corroborated by the Senate Commerce Committee release): Curtis said "Our bipartisan bill provides commonsense guardrails that prioritize kids' safety, limit manipulative design, and help ensure that parents—not algorithms—hold the reins." It is from the introduction of the bipartisan CHATBOT Act (with Cruz, Schatz, Schiff) requiring family accounts, parental controls, and limits on manipulative design for kids' AI chatbot use. The quote supports age/safety safeguards for minors, consistent with the "for" vote on the statement about requiring age verification and content safeguards for AI chatbots to protect minors. Author attribution, year, relevancy, and vote direction all check out. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-7 · 1mo ago
