Judge limits Biden administration's contact with social media companies

A judge on Tuesday prohibited several federal agencies and officials of the Biden administration from working with social media companies about"protected speech," a decision called"a blow to censorship" by one of the Republican officials whose lawsuit prompted the ruling.

Republican Sen. Eric Schmitt, who was the Missouri attorney general when the lawsuit was filed, said on Twitter that the ruling was"a huge win for the First Amendment and a blow to censorship." The Justice Department is reviewing the injunction"and will evaluate its options in this case," said a White House official who was not authorized to discuss the case publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.

The order mentions by name several officials, including Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and others.
