Multiple GOP U.S. Congressmen have weighed in on the anniversary including U.S. House Rep Lance Gooden (R-TX).

Gooden explained, “A year ago today, Big Tech coordinated with the Democrats to BAN the sitting President of the United States, Donald Trump. A week ago they banned MTG.”

“They have too much power & they must be broken up,” Gooden insisted and added, “That’s why I wrote the Break Up Big Tech Monopolies Act. Break up Big Tech.”

Break up Big Tech.

U.S. House Rep Jim Banks (R-IN) echoed Gooden and said in a tweet, “Big Tech banned President Trump a year ago today.”

“Far too many people have been silent about their abuse of power—and it’s emboldened their censorship of conservatives (including myself) ever since. We need to hold them accountable before it’s too late,” Banks asserted.
