Jim Jordan Calls For Judiciary Hearing To Address Cancel Culture: It's A Threat To Free Speech

Congressman Jim Jordan Is Calling On The House Judiciary Committee To Hold A Public Hearing On Cancel Culture.
Jordan, A Ranking Member Of The Committee Wrote A Letter To The Committee's Chair - Jerry Nadler -Saying An Investigation Needs To Be Held Because Of The Wave Of "Censorship" Happening Across The Nation.

The Ohio Republican Wrote That "Cancel Culture's Long-term Consequences To Our Democracy And Our Constitutional Framework Are Serious And Substantial."

“The Wave Of Cancel Culture Spreading In The Nation," He Wrote, "Is A Serious Threat To Fundamental Free Speech Rights In The United States. From Newsrooms To College Campuses To Social Media Giants, We Have Seen A Dangerous Trend Toward Silencing And Censoring Certain Political Speech"

The Ohio Representative Gave Examples Of Canceled Lectures Due To Students Disagreeing With The Speaker, Editors Forced To Resign Over Publishing An Opinion Piece From A Republican Senator, Amazon's Refusal To Sell Books Reflecting Certain Political Views, Social Media Banning Certain Accounts And The Latest Incident Of Democrat Members Of Congress Writing To Twelve Cable Companies Demanding That They Not Broadcast Certain News Networks.

Nadler Has Not Indicated Whether Or Not The Hearing Will Take Place.
