The hearing, dubbed "Protecting Speech from Government Interference and Social Media Bias, Part 1: Twitter’s Role in Suppressing the Biden Laptop Story," will be held on February 8.
"At the hearing, lawmakers on the panel will question three former Twitter employees who censored the New York Post’s reporting on the Biden family’s business schemes based on information obtained from Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop," the House Oversight Committee said in a statement.
Major tech companies and social media platforms, including Twitter, colluded prior to the 2020 US presidential election to censor information about Biden’s family business activities, the statement said.

"Americans deserve answers about this attack on the First Amendment and why Big Tech and the Swamp colluded to censor this information about the Biden family selling access for profit. Accountability is coming," Oversight Committee Chair James Comer said.

In January, the Oversight Committee requested information from the Treasury Department regarding any suspicious business transactions by the Biden family.
