What's in it

See official bill text

Costs less than $500,000 over the 2025-2030 period.

The $500,000 is only the federal administrative cost for the FTC to manage reporting and analysis — the real policy impact falls on large digital advertising platforms, which must collect and report data on mental health service advertisements annually.
