Rep. David Love has agreed to pay two drag queens $100,000 each and issue a public apology after falsely accusing them during a House committee meeting.
Champion and McMahon filed the lawsuit after Love made public remarks falsely claiming Champion was a sex offender and McMahon had inappropriate interactions with children.
The state representative later stated he was given "inaccurate information" that he failed to verify, leading to the public retraction and apology.
The lawsuit settlement emphasized accountability for spreading misinformation, especially regarding vulnerable communities and public events.
