Sen. Eric Schmitt told Fox News Digital that he intends to ensure Biden officials comply with U.S. District Judge Terry Doughty's injunction
Sen. Eric Schmitt pledged to keep following the Missouri v. Biden case that he filed as the state's former attorney general alongside his counterpart in Louisiana.
Now in the Senate, Schmitt said he intended to keep following the case using the powers of"legislation and oversight" his role in Washington calls for. "I've already filed legislation, that if you're in violation of people's First Amendment rights, section 230 protections don't apply to you if you're acompany," he said, citing the legal provision that shields such firms from liability for the content users post.
In addition to key agencies, the injunction also names figures like Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
