Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers Targets Big Tech's Censorship of Free Speech

Listen Later

Almost every day, it seems as though a Big Tech company has deplatformed another user. User content is blocked or removed continually. 


What is being done to hold Big Tech accountable for its actions? What is Section 230 in U.S. law, and does it need to be reformed? How can we protect both free speech and free markets? 


“These tech companies have become very destructive in so many different ways, and it is time for Congress to act on behalf of the American people, on behalf of parents, and on behalf of our children and the young generation," Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, R-Wash., says. 


Rodgers, who leads House Republicans' task force on Big Tech Censorship and Data, joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to answer these questions and explain what Congress is doing to protect Americans' free speech rights on social media platforms.
