On April 9, 2025, Carbone announced he "welcomed Border Czar, @RealTomHoman yesterday for a joint session with the AZ House & Senate". The session focused on key issues such as border closure, the deportation of illegal criminals, and finding missing children.

Later that day, Carbone discussed House Bill 2112, in which "Subjects a commercial entity to civil liability for damages if the entity intentionally and knowingly publishes or distributes sexual material that is harmful to minors on the internet without performing a reasonable age verification". The bill aims to impose civil liabilities on commercial entities carelessly publishing harmful sexual content accessible to minors online.

In the subsequent tweet, Carbone emphasized the significance of the bill for Arizona, stating "This Bill is crucial for Arizona as it helps protect minors from harmful sexual content online, ensuring safer digital spaces for children in today's internet age. #ProtectOurKids #AZLeg". This legislation represents part of wider efforts to foster safer online environments for children.

Additionally, recent findings related to digital behavior demonstrate a 15% year-over-year growth in internet users globally, highlighting the increased importance of such legislative measures.
