The Senate Judiciary Committee approved a motion to subpoena Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey in relation to their companies’ content moderation practices. The motion was filed by Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC), and specifically mentions the companies’ response to a New York Post article related to the Biden family last week.
Extra: The motion comes amid increased scrutiny on social media platforms’ content moderation practices. The CEOs of Google, Facebook, and Twitter are expected to testify before the Senate Commerce Committee on October 28 (in relation to Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which governs certain liability protections).
