Evidence

Senators Katie Britt, Jon Husted, and Mark Warner introduced Sammy’s Law. The release says the bill would require large social media platforms to permit parents to receive safety notifications through FTC-regulated third-party safety providers, giving parents tools to shield their children from harm.

Britt took concrete legislative action in the lookback window by introducing the bill matching the claim's core policy aim.

GovInfo lists S. 4159, Sammy’s Law, introduced in the Senate by Mr. Husted for himself, Mrs. Britt, and Mr. Warner and referred to the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation. The full title states it would require large social media platform providers to create and make available APIs so a child or parent may delegate permission to a third-party safety software provider to manage the child's online interactions, content, and account settings.

Official bill text confirms Britt was a cosponsor of the introduced legislation, but it had only been introduced and referred, not enacted.

Katie Britt materially supported legislation matching the promise by cosponsoring/introducing Sammy's Law in the 119th Congress, which would require large social media platforms to permit parent-enabled safety notifications through third-party safety providers. However, the evidence shows the bill was only introduced and referred to committee, with no enactment or implemented federal requirement. This is a serious legislative attempt but not fulfillment of the promised policy outcome.
