Congress is debating the CLARITY Act in the Senate Finance and Agriculture committees. This bill, while well-intended, does not go far enough to protect rural Oklahoma's interests. As we enter the digital space, we need protections for our country bankers and financial institutions. We are asking Senator Lankford to vote no on the CLARITY Act in its current form.

Great news for families: The App Store Accountability Act has advanced out of committee in the U.S. House.

For parents here in Oklahoma and across rural America, raising kids in the digital age isn’t easy. Apps can expose children to content and interactions that families never intended. Parents deserve real tools to guide what their kids can access online.

That’s why the App Store Accountability Act is such an important step forward. By placing basic safety measures at the app store level, this bill helps ensure that app ratings reflect actual content and that age verification and parental approval happen before kids download apps, not after problems occur.

As we work to grow rural America, it is important that we take safeguards to protect our kids and preserve our way of life. There is no easy answer to the dangers online, but we must take steps to protect kids.
