(Terry Bell, WRN) Wisconsin’s attorney general wants Congress to open hearings into social media and kids.

Attorneys General from all 50 states want congressional hearings into protecting the safety of kids using social media. The call comes after studies that show Facebook and Instagram are harmful to kids’ mental health, especially teenage girls.

Wisconsin’s Josh Kaul says it’s unacceptable for social media companies to profit by getting kids hooked on their apps.
