Republican Rep. Jim Jordan is subpoenaing Alphabet, demanding the company hands over documents containing communications between the company and the Biden administration, claiming it is conducting an investigation on how "and to what extent the executive branch coerced or colluded with companies and other intermediaries to censor lawful speech."

In a letter addressed at the company's CEo, Sundar Pichai, Jordan said the Judiciary Committee's oversight "uncovered how the Biden-Harris Administration repeatedly pressured online platforms (...) to censor Americans directly and by proxy." He added that as a result Meta "admitted that it was wrong to bow to the Biden-Harris Administration's demands" and committed to reform its policies.
