U.S. State Attorneys General

The Constitution is clear on this: The states have the authority over elections, not the Postal Service.

Cheating doesn’t win.

I think it justifies building up the team.

The money from the settlement will act as a down payment toward an industry-wide social media experience that allows kids to connect in a healthy way.

It is my hope that this is a turning point for the entire social media industry to prioritize the safety and well-being of children over their bottom line.

Now, the responsibility to protect our youth cannot end here.

For too many years, social media platforms have traded our children’s mental health for engagement on their apps.

We will apply the same standard and the same rules, and we’ll have the same energy and the same fervor to enforce the laws in the State of Nebraska, no matter who.

I appreciate Meta’s recognition of the harms caused by their platform design and working with attorneys general across the country to reach this historic settlement.

I strongly encouraged them to direct much of this money to go to mental health. That’s really the priority for me.

As a dad to two teenagers who’ve grown up in the digital age, protecting children from Big Tech is personal to me.

For years, Meta represented that its platforms posed no risk to the mental health of young people, all while knowing that its algorithms were designed to get kids hooked and to keep them online for as long as possible, with well-documented…

We have achieved some of the most important relief … both for the state to help abate the impact of social media on kids, but also to empower parents to help protect kids.

Cheating doesn’t win needs to resonate at the top of petition campaigns.

Every case has their own life. Every case has their own set of facts. Every case is a little bit different.

If there is a time at which I do not think that I can follow the law and discharge my duties, of course, the only thing for me to do is to recuse myself.

We’ll have the same energy and the same fervor to enforce the laws in the State of Nebraska, no matter who.

It is a sad period in Nebraska history that we’ve had this much fraud in our petition process.

I am proud to deliver this settlement that addresses the concerns at the core of our lawsuit and institutes real change, real transparency, and real enforceable protections for children on Facebook and Instagram — right now, no more…
