Utah Governor Spencer Cox signed two laws to restrict social media use by minors on Thursday. The law states minors under 18 will require parental permission to use platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook.

Cox, a Republican, said on Twitter, “We are no longer willing to let social media companies continue to harm the mental health of our youth.”
