The TAG Movement’s
policy work

Advancing policies that protect kids online and help them flourish offline

Parents and educators shouldn’t have to solve a society-wide problem one app or device at a time. We need policies that hold companies accountable for addictive and harmful design, and that make more room for the independence, connection, and play kids need to grow into strong, capable adults.

The momentum

As of November 2026

  • 25 U.S. states with bell-to-bell phone‑free school policies
  • 4 Countries with legislation restricting addictive social media access for kids under 16 (and many more considering proposals, including the European Union)
  • 7 U.S. states with Kids Code laws restricting addictive platform design
