🚨MAGA FACT CHECK🚨
Democrats just rammed through a bloated Connecticut AI regulation bill (SB 5) and are now pretending 21 Republicans voted to let AI chatbots have sex with children.
Here’s what actually happened:
The bill was a 70-page omnibus mess. Frontier AI rules, state bureaucracy, employment mandates, social media controls, workforce programs, and yes, some language restricting sexual chatbot interactions with minors.
Republicans didn’t vote against protecting kids. They voted against a rushed, overly broad regulatory nightmare that threatens jobs, innovation, and Connecticut’s economy. They said it should be handled federally, not by Hartford politicians playing catch-up on technology that changes by the hour.
Democrats love this game: stuff a bunch of power-grab garbage into a “think of the children” wrapper, then smear anyone who opposes the overreach as pro-grooming.
21 Republicans saw the con and voted no. Good for them. America First means protecting kids without handing the state another club to beat businesses and innovation. Democrats Deliver can lie all they want. The bill text and the vote record don’t.
I will never understand how anyone could be a Republican.
