Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would require each federal agency, within 90 days, to report to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) every time in the past five years that its staff contacted a non-government online platform to remove or limit lawful speech, add disclaimers to it, or restrict a person's access to the platform. Reports would name the employees and platform staff involved, the legal authority used, the reason, and the outcome. Agencies with no such contacts would certify that instead. OMB would then send a combined report to House and Senate committees within 210 days, with key parts unclassified, and each agency's Inspector General would review compliance and report to Congress.
