Certain activities regulation by social media platforms

SF 2269 prohibits social media platforms from willfully deplatforming Minnesota political candidates during their campaign period (from qualification to election).

Violations carry daily fines of $250,000 for statewide candidates and $25,000 for other offices. It also includes antitrust provisions related to state contracts but explicitly states enforcement must comply with federal law, including Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act.
