Republicans to send letter to Twitter calling for Hamas ban

June 11, 2019   

(Daily Caller) Sixteen Republican congresspeople plan to send a letter to Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey Tuesday encouraging the platform to ban all content promoting terror specific to Hamas, the Daily Caller has learned.

The signatories on the letter include Rep. Lee Zeldin of New York, Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming and Rep. Mark Meadows of North Carolina.

Foreign terrorist organizations “use Twitter to advance their hateful ideology and propaganda. Last month, Hamas fired approximately 700 rockets into Israel killing innocent victims. It is imperative that Twitter, a United States Company, bans designated FTOs, removing all content promoting terrorist activity,” the letter reads.

Hamas was put on the foreign terror organizations list in 1997 by the State Department.
