The resolution requests the Joint Committee on Government and Finance to conduct a comprehensive study on implementing parental consent measures for software applications downloaded by children under 18. It highlights the risks children face when downloading apps without parental oversight, including exposure to inappropriate content and unsafe online interactions. The resolution emphasizes the need for device manufacturers and application stores to take proactive steps, such as verifying the age of users and requiring parental consent before allowing downloads. It also calls for developers to create features that enable parents to manage their children's app usage effectively.

Additionally, the resolution advocates for standardized procedures across manufacturers and stores to ensure consistent enforcement of age verification and parental consent requirements. The Attorney General would be responsible for enforcing these procedures, and any resulting legislation should allow for civil action by the Attorney General without creating private rights of action. The findings and recommendations from this study are to be reported to the Regular Session of the Legislature in 2026, using the concepts outlined in HB2609 as a framework for potential legislative drafts.
