Why this status

Minnesota SF 1528 (the Certain Social Media Algorithms Targeting Children Prohibition bill) was introduced on February 17, 2025 and referred to the Commerce and Consumer Protection committee. No further legislative action was on record as of the May 5, 2026 review, so no new state rule is in force in Minnesota today.

What this means

  • There is no Minnesota rule on social-media algorithms targeting children in force today — only existing federal rules and each platform's own age and consent policies apply.
  • The bill, if enacted, would restrict certain algorithmic recommendation features targeting children. The obligations would land on platforms, not directly on parents.
  • House companion bill HF 48 may move in parallel — both bills can advance, and either could end up as the enacted vehicle.

What to verify next

  • Check the Minnesota Revisor page for SF 1528 to see if the bill clears committee, gets a floor vote, or is amended.
  • Watch HF 48 on the same site for parallel House activity — companion bills are how Minnesota frequently moves on tech-policy topics.
