This week we watched the Senate fail to pass voting rights legislation to protect our free and fair elections. This means the threats to our upcoming elections will now become even more dangerous, and your work to disrupt disinformation even more crucial. We’re so glad to know you’re here with us in this essential battle to stop the lies that undermine our freedom!
What We’re Seeing This Week
- The push for the freedom to vote was set back this week, clearing the road for election disinformation
- Health misinformers continue to spread false claims about the effectiveness of vaccines and booster shots, and right-wing actors are attacking companies like Carhartt that implement a vaccine mandate
- Bad actors persist in spreading lies about the Jan. 6 Capitol attack, including promoting the unfounded “false flag” conspiracy theory.
- Many Americans are understandably worried about rising prices and the impact inflation has on their day-to-day lives, but experts say the gap between supply and demand that is contributing to this increase could be on the decline. Still, misinformation blaming the crisis on progressive spending perseveres.
