Seems 2026 is the year of the KIDS act... The US congress proposed one as well.

Won't somebody please think of the kids?

Looks like the Epstein class does. Constantly.

At least the current US Congress is going to end in January, probably won't get this done before the end of the term.

~~What makes you think that? And what makes you think the next Congress is gonna be better? You guys keep electing idiots to all levels of your government. Think the next batch will not try to overreach?~~

Sorry that sounded like I'm attacking you. Bit my intent. I just wanna l wanted to say that I don't think your current or next Congress would act in a smart way, they mostly act in a convenient way.

I am not American myself.

No, I don't think the next Congress will be better, but at least procedurally the expiration of Congress is a hurdle to getting it done very soon. Not so in the EU.
