This commission will consist of eleven members and is tasked with conducting a comprehensive analysis of how these digital platforms are utilized in education, their effectiveness, potential harms, and strategies for improvement.
The commission is required to report its findings and recommendations to the education committee of the House of Representatives by April 23, 2027, and will expire on May 28, 2027. The resolution highlights the need for a thorough examination of the influence of third-party vendors in education, given the significant increase in their use over the past decade.
Introduced by Representatives Caldwell, Cotter, and Spears, the bill was introduced on March 25 and referred to the House Education Committee.
