Updated June 2026 — Media Literacy Now’s model bill has been refreshed to reflect the growing impacts of AI and social media and to give policymakers a practical, ready-to-use tool for today’s digital landscape. In addition to updated core language, this edition introduces new recommendations for embedding media literacy across related legislation — including school cell phone bans, classroom screen restrictions, AI literacy, and safe platform design.

The result is a robust, adaptable resource for state legislators, advocates, and education leaders who want to move beyond reactive fixes and ensure students gain the critical skills to navigate AI, social platforms, and other media safely and responsibly.
