Meta pushes for immunity from child-safety lawsuits
If passed, the clause could undercut thousands of cases from families and schools, tucked into a bill meant to protect children.

Meta calls it national standards, not immunity, but critics disagree and the bill's Republican co-sponsor rejects the idea.
