While we know and can tell that the monetary rewards are going to be transformative, I want to focus on the injunctive relief that we obtained as a part of the settlement.

The size of the settlement is massive and represents a huge victory for kids’ online safety.

We are really excited to put this money into efforts that are going to continue to help protect our kids.

This is historic, this is a shift in how Meta and these companies are going to operate.

I know that you’ve been through a lot. But I hope what you can take away from today is this idea that you did win and you have set an example for people all across Virginia.

New intoxicating products and substances enter the market every single day, many of which include dangerous or illegal ingredients and are deceptively packaged, labeled, and marketed to consumers.

We know that most businesses, retailers, manufacturers, and distributors want to follow the rules, and Virginians want to know what they are consuming.

This office will put Virginians first and focus all our energy on vigorously and aggressively advocating for Virginians, fighting for transparency and accountability, and protecting ratepayers from being left to foot the bill long after…

Gun violence prevention is not just about responding to incidents, it is about building environments where people feel secure, supported, and connected.

Certainly yesterday, we had hoped to get a decision to streamline these cases.

Commonwealth's Attorneys are elected to enforce our laws, which is what we expect them to do when these laws take effect on July 1.

I will keep fighting for these crucial resources and the people who depend on them.

This proposed ‘settlement’ is yet another appalling example of Donald Trump’s belief that he is above the law, and that his presidency allows him to evade accountability for his illegal actions.

The people of the commonwealth are fed up with his schemes, and they are fed up with elected leaders who believe they are above the people they serve.

As Virginians face a growing cost crisis, President Trump is politicizing funding for critical USDA programs that help feed vulnerable children, hardworking families, senior citizens and rural communities.

I pledge to keep fighting for these crucial resources and the people who depend on them.

I can only take full accountability and offer my sincere apology.

I cannot take back what I said.

Yes, I’ve told you this before. Only when people feel pain personally do they move on policy.

I took full responsibility for my actions and apologized for the texts.
