Republican Reps. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and Ken Buck (R-Colo.) made a renewed request to Twitter for documents related to the social media platform’s internal moderation policies.

They asked for “an accounting of all content moderation decisions” made by Twitter over the past year, and documentation on the decision to apply “fact check” notations to posts made by President Donald Trump about mail-in ballots and the “autonomous zone in Washington, D.C.”
