The Republican-led House Judiciary Committee has subpoenaed the chief executives of five major tech companies seeking records and information on their content moderation practices.
Chairman Jim Jordan of Ohio sent the subpoenas to the CEOs of Google parent Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Facebook parent Meta and Microsoft requesting documents and communications “referring or relating to the moderation, deletion, suppression, restriction or reduced circulation of content.”
The subpoenas also demanded documents specifying the employees responsible for developing or executing content policies and any communications with people outside the executive branch about policies or decisions about content moderation. In letters accompanying the subpoenas, Jordan said the requested documents would be used as part of the committee's investigation into allegations of collusion with the executive branch to suppress conservative voices online.
