Biden administration attorneys say a federal judge’s order limiting executive branch communications with social media companies could cause harm by preventing the government from “engaging in a vast range of lawful and responsible conduct.”
President Joe Biden walks down the steps of Air Force One at Andrews Air Force Base, Md., Thursday, July 6, 2023, after returning from a trip to South Carolina.
The request to stay the order was the administration's first substantive response to a July 4 ruling by U.S. District Judge Terry Doughty in Monroe. The order also prohibits the agencies and officials from pressuring social media companies “in any manner” to try to suppress posts, raising questions about what officials could even say in public forums.
In their filing Thursday night with the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana, attorneys led by Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Brian M. Boynton called the order “ambiguous.” They said it could prevent the Biden administration from “speaking on matters of public concern and working with social media companies on initiatives to prevent grave harm to the American people and our democratic processes.
