Why this status

Rooted Reality reviewed Colorado's youth-social-media bills and confirmed HB26-1148 was postponed indefinitely on April 7, 2026. No other enacted Colorado rule on kids and social media is on the books today. Federal law and each platform's own age and consent policies are what apply for Colorado families.

What this means

Colorado has no enforceable state rule for minors and social media today — HB26-1148 was the most direct candidate this session and was postponed indefinitely.
Postponed-indefinitely usually means the bill is dead for this session, but the topic can be reintroduced in the next one. Movement isn't a rule until something is signed.
Federal law (COPPA for under-13 data, for one) and the platform's own age-of-account and parental-consent flow are what households work with today.

What to verify next

Watch the Colorado General Assembly for a successor bill in the next session — postponed-indefinitely measures are often refiled in the same shape.
For decisions you need to make today, the app's published age and consent policy is the active rule — read it directly on the app's safety or settings page.
