Social media platforms required to post a mental health warning label and timer notifications.

HF 1289 requires social media platforms operating in Minnesota to display a mental health warning label each time a user accesses the platform. The label must warn of potential negative mental health impacts, include resources like the 988 Suicide Lifeline, and remain visible until the user exits or acknowledges the warning. The bill also mandates that platforms show a pop-up timer notification every 30 minutes (customizable up to 60 minutes) tracking daily active usage time, which users must acknowledge before dismissing. These requirements apply to all covered social media platforms and take effect July 1, 2025. The law does not create private lawsuits but allows the attorney general to enforce it.
