Graves County board to consider authorizing litigation against social media companies

What happened

The board is scheduled to consider a resolution authorizing litigation against social media companies. The October 19 agenda does not identify the companies, claims, or requested relief, and the resolution had not yet been acted on when the agenda was published.

Why it matters to families

If approved, the resolution would authorize a significant legal action by the district; the agenda provides no details about its scope or basis.

The evidence

The October 19, 2026 board agenda lists “Resolution Authorizing Litigation Against Social Media Companies” after an executive-session item on proposed or pending litigation. This is a scheduled agenda item, not a completed board decision.
