Rs and Ds agree that we need to better understand how algorithms are shaping our discourse and what can be done to curb these issues. Today, I was proud to hold my first hearing as Chair of the Subcommittee on Privacy, Tech, and the Law on this very topic. https://t.co/Sr0yHcpyZH — PolitiTweet.org

Social media platforms use algorithms to shape what billions of people read, watch, and think, but we know very little about how these systems work. Increasingly, we’re hearing that algorithms amplify misinformation, feed political polarization, and make us more distracted. — PolitiTweet.org

While today’s hearing revealed important insights, this is just the beginning of the conversation. It’s vital that we assess what practical steps need to be taken by companies, regulators, and Congress. I look forward to continuing to work with @SenSasse on this issue. — PolitiTweet.org
