House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan has announced that he is scrapping his plans to move forward with a contempt vote in light of Facebook turning over more documents to the committee
“Based on Facebook’s newfound commitment to fully cooperate with the Committee’s investigation, the Committee has decided to hold contempt in abeyance,” Jordan, a Republican from Ohio, wrote on Twitter. “For now. To be clear, contempt is still on the table and WILL be used if Facebook fails to cooperate in FULL.
A source familiar told CNN that Facebook produced three recent batches of documents between Wednesday and Thursday morning. Prior to those batches, Facebook sent 53,000 pages of documents over 18 batches, and has allowed 10 employees to do transcribed interviews. Andy Stone, a spokesperson for Meta, confirmed the company delivered additional documents to the committee and pointed to an earlier statement it has made on its cooperation with the committee.
