(Reuters) – The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday lifted restrictions imposed by lower courts on the ability of President Joe Biden’s administration to encourage social media companies to remove content deemed misinformation, including about elections and COVID-19.
The justices granted the administration’s emergency request to put on hold a preliminary injunction constraining how the White House and certain other federal officials communicate with social media platforms, also agreeing to take up the government’s appeal and hear arguments in the case.
