Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : NetChoice on Tuesday applauded the court's decision, calling HB20 "a constitutional trainwreck.""We are relieved that the First Amendment, open internet, and the users who rely on it remain protected from Texas's unconstitutional overreach," Chris Marchese, a lawyer representing NetChoice, said in a statement.
47% : The appeals court ruling blocked a preliminary injunction issued in December by a US judge, who wrote that social media companies have a First Amendment right to moderate content on their platforms.
46% : The Supreme Court "has repeatedly recognized that private entities have the right under the First Amendment to determine whether and how to disseminate speech," the organizations said earlier this month.
