Mar 2: Utah State Rep Jordan Teuscher. Parents to determine kids access to internet

Utah state legislation likely to pass the state legislature within the next week-plus will require children under 18 to receive parental consent in order to log onto websites such as Facebook, Tumblr, Reddit, as well as fan fiction sitesd or similar online services. The same applies to all social media. A legal challenge has caused the legislation to be redrafted. 
Our guest has spoken with legislators in two dozen other U.S. states interested in similar legislation and not unlike the 'Protecting Young Persons from Exposure to Pornography Act' legislation under consideration in Canada which would require a user to verify his/her age before being able to access pornography websites.
We speak with a state legislator prominent in creating the Utah law.
