You can try adjusting the fee slider to a lower setting but make sure the transaction still gets confirmed in a reasonable time. Sometimes using a dynamic fee setting based on current network conditions can help reduce the fee. Also double check if you have any unspent transaction outputs that might be causing the higher fee due to the way Electrum is structuring the transaction.

If the issue persists, you could try using a different wallet like bitcoin core or exodus to see if the fees are lower.
