COLORADO GRAPPLES WITH AI CHATBOTS FOR KIDS — AND PORN AGE VERIFICATION...

Read at denverpost.com →

Colorado lawmakers are wrestling with new rules to limit how kids interact with AI chatbots that could expose them to suicide risks or adult content. The push comes as more states tighten guardrails on tech that preys on the young. APP's February 2026 Cygnal poll shows 81% of Americans back porn age verification — with 66% strongly in favor — and 83% support app store age verification across parties.

This is the fight APP helped lead. Twenty-four states now require age checks for online porn. In 2025, the Supreme Court upheld Texas' law 6-3. Our kids are drowning in hyper-sexualized material designed to rob their innocence. Age verification is the tool to block it.


ABA SPOTLIGHTS AGE VERIFICATION LAWS — AND THEIR REACH TO SOCIAL MEDIA...

The American Bar Association is examining how age verification on websites could reshape rules for social media too. With SCOTUS backing these protections, the momentum is clear: states are moving to shield children from the worst of the internet. APP's poll confirms the intensity — 66% strongly support porn age checks, the highest in the survey.

Parents want action, not excuses. Lead with child safety and pair it with real family tools like Home Savings Accounts, which poll at 77% support.

OBERNOLTE 'CLOSE' TO DROPPING AI RULES DRAFT AS CONCERNS MOUNT...

Read at punchbowl.news →

Rep. Jay Obernolte is nearing release of a draft for AI regulations amid growing worries over unchecked tech. The timing lines up with state efforts like Colorado's to rein in AI chatbots that reach kids. From age verification to guardrails on harmful content, the pressure is building to protect the next generation from Big Tech's experiments.

APP has driven this conversation from the start. Our polling shows voters aren't chasing ideology — they want concrete steps that safeguard their families.

TRUMP TEAM TARGETS 'ORPHAN TAX' IN PUSH TO END WORST GOVERNMENT ABUSES...

Read at Daily Signal →

The Trump administration is moving to kill the so-called "orphan tax," part of a broader crackdown on the worst federal overreach hurting families. This hits at the heart of making America more affordable for parents raising kids. APP has long fought for kitchen-table wins like expanded child tax credits and Home Savings Accounts — which poll at 77% support with just 11% opposed.

The American family is the bedrock. Policies that ease the burden and defend life strengthen the nation where it matters most.

The Credentialed Left

CALL SIGN COURAGE: SOLDIER'S BATTLE AGAINST CREEPING MARXISM IN THE MILITARY...

Read at theblaze.com →

One soldier is pushing back hard against Marxist ideology infiltrating the armed forces. The piece highlights how radical ideas have crept into training and culture under the credentialed left's influence. This comes as House GOP navigates a brutal week on Capitol Hill with razor-thin margins and mounting pressure.

The Democratic Party grows more radical by the day. Even as they soft-pedal for 2028, their base and their record reveal how far out of step they are. Midterm stakes could not be higher.
