God bless these angel families who endured unimaginable tragedy.” (posted February 23, 2026).

Later that evening, Blackburn acknowledged congressional support for her legislative initiative: “Thank you to the 75 Senators who have co-sponsored my Kids Online Safety Act. Americans are demanding action, and every single member of Congress has a duty to deliver it.” (posted February 23, 2026).
