Sean JUST grilled Mark Zuckerberg:

"If someone with a large platform is spreading misinformation on your platform, you're saying you wouldn't take it down or you would?" -- Sean Casten

"Congressman, in general, our policy is not to ban people from posting things that are false." -- Mark Zuckerberg

He called out Facebook for letting right-wing politicians violate their terms of service and freely run ads with misleading or even blatantly false information.

The spread of disinformation to American voters is a direct threat to our democracy -- but instead of taking action to protect the public, Zuckerberg's meeting with Donald Trump in the Oval Office and hosting dinners with politicians like Lindsey Graham and rightwing Fox News pundits.

Facebook is giving right-wing politicians a greenlight to lie to the American people to help its bottom line.

Sean's holding Big Tech accountable for its role in the spread of disinformation -- pitch in to help keep him in Congress fighting on our behalf!

It's unacceptable that Facebook will fact check what you share with your friends, but not what Donald Trump and Republicans pay to show to millions of voters.

Zuckerberg won't let everyday Americans abuse his platform, but he's fine with letting our elected officials spread lies and propaganda if it means they'll keep writing him checks.

Russian bots aren't the only threat to our elections in 2020.

If you agree with Sean that we've got to rein in Big Tech and stop the spread of false information by right-wing politicians, chip in to help him defend his seat in 2020!

Facebook helped elect Trump in 2016. We can't let their negligence and greed decide what happens in 2020.
