Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson argued that the maximum was appropriate, considering that he had previously sued Facebook in 2018.

SEATTLE — A Washington state judge on Wednesday fined Facebook parent company Meta nearly $25 million for repeatedly and intentionally violating campaign finance disclosure law, in what is believed to be the largest campaign finance penalty in U.S. history.

But Meta has repeatedly objected to the requirements, arguing unsuccessfully in court that the law is unconstitutional because it"unduly burdens political speech" and is"virtually impossible to fully comply with." While Facebook does keep an archive of political ads that run on the platform, the archive does not disclose all the information required under Washington's law.

In 2018, following Ferguson's first lawsuit, Facebook agreed to pay $238,000 and committed to transparency in campaign finance and political advertising. It subsequently said it would stop selling political ads in the state rather than comply with the requirements.
