Political ads will once again be a source of revenue for Twitter following the social media platform’s Jan. 3 announcement that it would be loosening its restrictions on cause-based and political advertising.

“We believe that cause-based advertising can facilitate public conversation around important topics,” Twitter noted Tuesday in a statement. “Today, we’re relaxing our ads policy for cause-based ads in the US. We also plan to expand the political advertising we permit in the coming weeks.”
