Steve DelBianco, president and CEO of NetChoice, a trade group which represents tech companies, challenged the legislation in Florida and Texas.
“After a federal court ruled Florida’s law( violated the First Amendment, I testified in Texas on how their bill had the same First Amendment flaws as Florida,” DelBianco said. “But that didn’t trouble Texas Republican lawmakers, who are so interested in scoring political points that they voted for a bill that would allow awful user posts on social media, like pornography, ethnic slurs, and vaccine disinformation.”
