Blake C. StaceyPolitico quotes Ted Cruz as saying, "We are certainly looking to move forward with KOSA and COPPA 2.0 and KOSMA altogether." So #KOSA is definitely not off the table.
There is a hearing scheduled for this coming Wednesday in the Senate Commerce Committee about Section 230, with what looks like two generally pro-230 witnesses and 2 against (currently).

Repealing 230 could well be apocalyptic for fedi. One can infer this from how Mark Zuckerberg has been eager to "reform" it.

It'd be a good time to contact the committee and remind them that the Internet isn't just three big companies, and those of us trying to build an alternative to "Big Tech" need legal protection for exactly the same reasons that the nascent Internet did in 1996.

Senate Commerce hearing on Section 230. And, uh, this is big. Not giving him any credit, but Ted Cruz was really the first Senator to be vocally anti-230 and calling for repeal a decade ago. And here he is saying "whoa, repeal might be bad." That's big. https://www.commerce.senate.gov/2026/3/liability-or-deniability-platform-power-as-section-230-turns-30
