Facebook temporarily suspended Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's account on Monday, a day after Twitter 'permanently suspended' the Georgia congresswoman's personal account for posting misinformation.

He said Republican lawmakers would work on "getting answers — voluntarily or through rigorous congressional oversight — from Twitter and other Big Tech companies surrounding their decision to silence certain Americans and to hold these companies accountable." In her own statement Sunday, Greene said, "Twitter is an enemy to America and can’t handle the truth."Our goal is to create a safe and engaging place for users to connect over interests and passions.
