A Senate Republican on Wednesday, Oct. 13, proposed requiring public schools to teach about social-media literacy. Sen. Danny Burgess, R-Zephyrhills, filed the bill (SB 480) for consideration during the 2022 legislative session, which will start in January.

If approved, it would be added to part of state law that requires instruction on a variety of other topics, including the elements of civil government, the history of the United States and the history of the Holocaust.
