Some Republicans on the antitrust subcommittee suggest their accusations of bias are tied to antitrust issues. Jim Jordan, the top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, recently tried to draw these issues into tomorrow’s antitrust hearing by sending a letter calling Twitter chief executive Jack Dorsey appear. The Democrats running the hearing however did not invite Dorsey, whose company is significantly smaller than the other tech giants facing antitrust scrutiny. Paxton's office is also leading a multistate investigation into Google and is part of a multistate antitrust investigation into Facebook led by the New York Attorney General. The Senate Commerce Committee will hold a hearing on The PACT Act and Section 230 on today at 10 a.m.
