This is a heritage foundation bill to limit freedom of speech online. Everyone online will be affected, especially organizers and the marginalized. It needs more attention. @50501movement.bsky.social @iceoutnow.bsky.social @indivisible.org @ezralevin.bsky.social

What is Section 230

This website attempts to clarify misconceptions about Section 230. Tell your lawmakers to read it before they change a law they don’t understand. We can't afford to open the floodgate of government & private censorship while our society is on the verge of fascist takeover.

Statement: With 230 repeal bill, Dems target 2026 as year online protest organizing and reproductive healthcare info dies A bipartisan group of lawmakers has just reintroduced a bill in the Senate and the House to sunset Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, aka the Internet’s First Amendment, by the end of 2026...

Without Section 230, movement organizing will be censored. Groups like Indivisible, No Kings, 50501, or ICE out of Home Depot use social media to get out information, organize rallies, share resources, and connect with each other.

Section 230 of the communications decency act is the legal foundation for the modern internet, a shield against efforts to crush online dissent. It’s why websites can host comments, forums, reviews, group chats, marketplaces, and social platforms without being sued into oblivion.

Op-ed: Weakening Section 230 Would Chill Online Speech Enacted 30 years ago through careful legislative deliberation, Section 230 remains the internet’s strongest bulwark for free expression, protecting the servicesβ€”and usersβ€”that make online speech

Section 230, β€œthe 26 words that created the internet,” was enacted 30 years ago this week. It was no rush-jobβ€”rather, it was the result of wise legislative deliberation and foresight, and it remains the best bulwark to protect free expression online.

How, again, are Dems supposed to negotiate with the Rs on the 2026 fiscal year budget (already 3.5 months late) if Trump has no intention of honoring the deals negotiated and laws passed?
