In our very online world, kids are faced with new dangers every day. The internet is filled to the brim with addicting social media platforms, mind-numbing videos, violent and explicit content, and even online child predators. And yet, the internet is becoming harder and harder for children to avoid, whether at school, at home, or even on the go.

Dear Friend,

Along with our allies at Family Voice, we have an urgent request for your help.

House Bill (H.B.) 1257 would protect children from exposure to pornography by requiring any website publishing pornography to conduct industry standard age verification of its users, while maintaining user privacy.

Studies show that by the age of 17, 75% of children have been exposed to pornography. They also show that the average age children first view pornography is between 7 and 13 years old, and most of those exposures happen accidentally. Even more concerning, research proves that pornography is as harmful to your brain as a hard drug. Our children are being exposed to material that is harming them the way a hard drug would, and they’re stumbling upon it by accident. H.B. 1257 would put a stop to it while ensuring all user data remains protected.

Parents are the first guardians of their child’s innocence. Ensuring kids are protected from early exposure to pornography is a critical step to making sure parents are the ones providing their kids with age-appropriate sexual education when they know it is right.

H.B. 1257 was dead in committee, but on Monday, the legislature can “smoke it out” with a one third vote on the Senate floor. So, we need you to contact your state senator and ask him or her to support H.B. 1257 on Monday. Doing so is easy in our Action Center.

Along with our allies at Family Voice, who have worked tirelessly to get this bill passed, we urge you to partner with us to protect kids from early exposure to pornography.

Send a message to your state senator NOW and urge them to protect South Dakota kids!

For our kids,

Joseph Kohm
Director, Public Policy

 

 

 

 

 

Just when you thought you’d seen it all, each Pride month just seems to top the previous years. This month we’ve seen Pride propaganda being pushed harder than ever: Target, the LA Dodgers, and even the Biden Administration are pushing LGBT ideology in the most farfetched ways.

Christians nationwide are outraged, and most of all, concerned for their children and families. Delano Squires, a Research Fellow at The Heritage Foundation and father of four, says we shouldn’t lose hope, especially as Christians. In today’s live video, hear seven of the craziest pride propaganda moments from Pride Month 2023, and learn how a Christian father encourages us to respond. The bottom line? There is so much reason for hope!
