California will launch the "first-in-the-nation" digital democracy program to help support community conversations and promote public engagement on important topics, California Gov. Gavin Newsom says.
Newsom announced the new program, Engaged California, will use digital platforms to inform the public about important issues that will ultimately help inform policy decisions and program design.
"Fact Checkers will be employed to prevent the spread of disinformation." I.e., information that doesn't align with the government's party line.
