The Utah Office of Administrative Rules has published the Utah Social Media Regulation Act (SMRA) rule, crafted and submitted by the Department of Commerce’s Division of Consumer Protection (Division). The Division will hold a public hearing at the Senate Building at the Capitol in room 220 on November 1, 2023, from 9:00 am to 11:00 am to receive feedback on the rules.
The hearing will be livestreamed at socialmedia.utah.gov. The public may attend in person or virtually at https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82546181986 to contribute feedback.
The public may continue to submit comments on the rule and share experiences with minors on social media platforms at socialmedia.utah.gov until February 5, 2024. After considering public comments, the SMRA rule will go into effect, and social media companies have until March 1, 2024, to comply.
