17		-	SECTION 1. Legislative declaration. (1) The general assembly
18		-	finds and declares that:
19		-	(a) On May 23, 2023, U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy
20		-	released a Social Media and Youth Mental Health advisory to recognize the
21		-	growing impact of social media on youth mental health and well-being as
22		-	a significant public health challenge that requires immediate awareness and
23		-	action;
24		-	NOTE: This bill has been prepared for the signatures of the appropriate legislative
25		-	officers and the Governor. To determine whether the Governor has signed the bill
26		-	or taken other action on it, please consult the legislative status sheet, the legislative
27		-	history, or the Session Laws.

29		-	Capital letters or bold & italic numbers indicate new material added to existing law; dashes
30		-	through words or numbers indicate deletions from existing law and such material is not part of
31		-	the act. (b) The advisory includes recommendations for policymakers to
32		-	address this issue, including to "support the development, implementation,
33		-	and evaluation of digital and media literacy curricula in schools and within
34		-	academic standards" and "ensure technology companies share data relevant
35		-	to the health impacts of their platforms";
36		-	(c) In the United States, up to 95% of youth ages 13 to 17 report
37		-	using social media platforms, and a third of youth report using social media
38		-	"almost constantly";
39		-	(d) A study of youth in the United States ages 12 to 15 found that
40		-	youth who spend three or more hours a day on social media had double the
41		-	risk of experiencing poor mental health outcomes, including experiencing
42		-	symptoms of depression and anxiety. As of 2021, the average time spent on
43		-	social media for this age group is three-and-a-half hours a day, with one in
44		-	four youth spending five or more hours a day on the platforms, and one in
45		-	seven spending seven or more hours a day on social media.
46		-	(e) A systematic review of 42 studies on the effects of excessive
47		-	social media use found a consistent relationship between social media use
48		-	and poor sleep quality, reduced sleep duration, sleep difficulties, and
49		-	depression among youth;
50		-	(f) Social media sites are designed to maximize user engagement,
51		-	which can encourage excessive social media use and behavioral
52		-	dysregulation. Youth undergo critical periods of brain development, and
53		-	social media exposure and frequent use may be associated with distinct
54		-	changes in the developing brain, including overstimulation of the amygdala,
55		-	triggering pathways similar to those in individuals with substance use or
56		-	gambling addictions.
57		-	(g) The 2020 Comprehensive Health Academic Standards in
58		-	Colorado include standards for comprehensive health and physical
59		-	education, among them the importance of identifying and managing the risk
60		-	and the impacts of modern technology and social media on students'
61		-	physical and personal wellness;
62		-	(h) Understanding more about how technology and health intersect
63		-	can help solve certain societal problems and improve the mental and
64		-	PAGE 2-HOUSE BILL 24-1136 physical health of Coloradans. Providing free resources educators can use
65		-	while teaching comprehensive health will help educators meet the essential
66		-	skills outlined in the 2020 Comprehensive Health Academic Standards.
67		-	(i) At the federal level, legislation and reforms to improve social
68		-	media platforms that youth access are slow-moving and do not meet the
69		-	demands and fast-moving nature of social media; and
70		-	(j) States recognize the growing impact of social media and
71		-	problematic technology use on youth mental health and the importance of
72		-	enacting legislation to address those concerns. States can exercise
73		-	leadership in this area rather than waiting for slow-moving federal
74		-	legislation to do so.
75		-	(2) The general assembly therefore declares that it is a matter of
76		-	statewide concern to provide research-based education and interventions,
77		-	including resources on the effects of social media use on brain
78		-	development, how to mitigate the risks associated with social media use,
79		-	and how to maintain well-being while interacting in online environments,
80		-	to help youth make informed decisions on responsible social media use.
81		-	SECTION 2. In Colorado Revised Statutes, add 22-2-127.8 as
