Congressman James Comer, chair of the US House Oversight and Government Reform committee (HOGR), yesterday invited Valve president Gabe Newell, Discord CEO Humam Sakhnini, Twitch CEO Dan Clancy, and Reddit CEO Steve Huffman to testify before a HOGR hearing on October 8.
The hearing, per a press release from HOGR itself, "will examine the radicalization of online forum users, including instances of open incitement to commit politically motivated acts," and if you're wondering if that's a roundabout way of saying it's tied to the September 10 assassination of American far-right activist Charlie Kirk—it is.
