COMMERCIAL REGULATIONS: Establishes requirements for notifications on social media (OR NO IMPACT See Note)
HB 290 requires social media platforms to display a pop-up or full-screen notification after an account holder or user spends one cumulative hour on the platform within a 24-hour period. The notification must include health impact information about social media use, supported by peer-reviewed data or materials from the Louisiana Department of Health's Office of Public Health (which must update this information annually). The notification must repeat at least every 30 minutes after the initial alert. This bill directly affects social media platforms operating in Louisiana and their users, mandating specific health-related engagement reminders.
