The recent $787 million settlement in the defamation lawsuit by Dominion Systems against Fox News is a victory for the truth over lies. It's a reminder that Fox News intentionally and repeatedly aired false allegations about our elections. Their false coverage didn't just harm one company, it hurt American democracy.
But while Fox News will have to write a big check, they won't have to apologize or admit their mistakes. The question now is: Will the peddlers of election disinformation really be held accountable?
That's why I'm making a pledge to push back against disinformation by leading with the truth.

Fox News is just one example of entities spreading disinformation. Just last week, election deniers held a forum in Minnesota spreading false information about our election system. And with the 2024 presidential election approaching rapidly, we should expect more of these harmful stunts.
I will continue to speak out about how our election system in Minnesota is fundamentally fair, accurate, honest, and secure. I will also advocate for new laws, such as the one we're on the verge of passing in Minnesota, to target those who intentionally spread disinformation for the purpose of interfering with a person's freedom to vote.
Together, we can hold those spreading disinformation accountable and protect our democracy. I'm committed to leading with the truth, and I hope I can count on your support. Please make sure we have the resources to keep correcting the record by chipping in here →
Thank you for your continued support, team.
