Biden campaign slams Facebook for 'regression' in its efforts to safeguard the election

"Rather than seeing progress, we have seen regression," wrote Biden Campaign Manager Jen O'Malley Dillon in a letter to Zuckerberg that was obtained Axios. O'Malley Dillon accuses Facebook of failing to act by its commitments to prohibit messages misrepresenting who can vote and how. O'Malley Dillon called for Facebook to remove Trump's posts that violate its policies. Twitter, by contrast, has taken more aggressive actions in the past year on political content, such as fact-checking and obscuring some of Trump's tweets and banning political ads altogether. "As you say, 'voting is voice,'" O'Malley Dillon wrote.
