Republicans shelve Zuckerberg contempt vote in ‘censorship’ inquiry ‘for now’

House panel was to consider resolution on Meta chief for allegedly failing to turn over internal documents to investigators

Mark Zuckerberg, the chief executive of Meta, is no stranger to Capitol Hill, where he has sparred with Republicans and Democrats over how he runs his platforms. A Republican-led panel was set to vote on Thursday on a resolution to hold him in contempt of Congress, for allegedly failing to turn over internal documents on content moderation.

However, House judiciary committee chair Jim Jordan, a Republican of Ohio, temporarily suspended the vote.
