John,

I'm reaching out to you with an urgent call to action. Last week, a conservative federal judge in Louisiana issued a concerning ruling that restricts federal agencies from communicating with social media companies about disinformation. This ruling could hinder our efforts to combat election disinformation as 2024 approaches.

As the Minnesota Secretary of State, my duty is to defend democracy and ensure the integrity of our elections.

It's crucial that we continue our ongoing efforts to work with social media companies like Meta and Twitter to do what they say they want to do: Keep their platforms free of corrosive disinformation. We can’t let false information distort our democracy during such a critical national election.

John, I need your support to counter disinformation effectively. Our goal this week is to raise $10,000 to bolster our efforts and ensure that we can continue confronting disinformation head-on. Will you please chip in $5 or more now?

Despite the ruling, we have to press forward and lead with the truth.

Our goal is simple: to set the record straight and protect our democracy. Past claims that election equipment changed votes, that foreign governments introduced counterfeit ballots, or that the election was “rigged” or “stolen” are just a few examples of the types of disinformation we’re fighting against.

But I can't do this alone. Will you stand with me in the fight against election disinformation? Your contribution of $25, $50, or whatever amount you can give will make a significant difference.

Please donate now and be a vital part of protecting our democracy and ensuring fair and transparent elections.

Thank you for your commitment to truth and democracy.

Sincerely,

Steve
