The U.S. district judge who granted an injunction barring several federal agencies from various types of communication with social media companies denied the Justice Department’s motion to put that injunction on hold.
“Today is another big win for free speech and our efforts to fight back against big tech and government censorship,” said Sen. Eric Schmitt, Missouri Republican.
The lawsuit alleged that the federal government overstepped in its efforts to convince social media companies to address postings that could result in vaccine hesitancy during the COVID-19 pandemic or impact elections. Judge Doughty, an appointee of former President Trump, cited “substantial evidence” of a far-reaching censorship campaign.
In the Biden administration’s court filing, attorneys led by Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Brian M. Boynton called the order “ambiguous.”
