Tech giants need to be held accountable for potential censorship practices, say Republicans on the Senate Judiciary committee who recently voted to subpoena the CEO’s of Twitter and Facebook.

The panel voted 12-0 on Oct. 22 to compel the testimony of Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg amid a boycott by Democrats protesting an earlier committee vote that advanced the nomination of Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court.
