🚨MAJOR WIN: This is a major victory for children, parents, and the ability of states to protect minors from the damaging effects of online pornography.  Companies have no right to expose children to pornography and must institute reasonable age verification measures.  I will continue to enforce the law against any organization that refuses to take the necessary steps to protect minors from explicit materials.
