Pai said he will propose a new interpretation of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, limiting the legal immunity websites like Facebook and Twitter are granted when they block or screen content. Trump claims the companies are biased against conservatives, and he wants to post on social media without the platforms adding <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/tech-policy\/2020\/05\/twitters-first-fact-check-on-president-trump-calls-out-false-claims\/\">fact checks<\/a> or limiting the reach of posts that <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/tech-policy\/2020\/06\/facebook-pulls-trump-campaign-ads-for-featuring-nazi-associated-image\/\">violate their rules<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Pallone and Doyle say that Pai shouldn&#8217;t help Trump in his battle against social media companies:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>From the start, Republicans have used the Section 230 debate to threaten social media companies when they remove or flag disinformation and extremism on their platforms\u2014all because of some baseless fantasy grievance that the Internet is biased against conservative views. Their approach translates into a defense of online extremism and foreign countries&#8217; disinformation campaigns, which is a baffling and dangerous position for lawmakers to take.<\/p>\n<p>Section 230 reform that creates a structure for healthier online ecosystems is needed and we are committed to seeing it done\u2014but the FCC&#8217;s rush to push President Trump&#8217;s agenda weeks before Election Day should be seen for the reckless and politically motivated stunt that it is.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>We contacted Chairman Pai&#8217;s office about the Pallone\/Doyle statement today and will update this article if we get a response.<\/p>\n<h2>Trump stacking the FCC<\/h2>\n<p>The FCC is supposed to act independently from the White House, but its members are nominated by the president. Trump is trying to stack the commission by <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/tech-policy\/2020\/09\/trump-replaces-fcc-member-in-bid-to-push-through-twitter-facebook-crackdown\/\">replacing Republican FCC Commissioner Michael O&#8217;Rielly<\/a> with Nathan Simington, an administration official who shares Trump&#8217;s views on Section 230. Simington&#8217;s nomination is pending Senate approval.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div itemprop=\"articleBody\" class=\"article-content post-page\">\n<p>O&#8217;Rielly angered Trump by saying that the FCC <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/tech-policy\/2020\/08\/trump-pulls-re-nomination-of-fcc-republican-who-stood-up-for-first-amendment\/\">must uphold<\/a> First Amendment speech protections &#8220;that apply to corporate entities, especially when they engage in editorial decision making.&#8221; Similarly, critics of the Trump\/Pai plan from both the <a

href=\"https:\/\/techfreedom.org\/fcc-has-no-authority-to-issue-section-230-rules\/\">right<\/a> say the FCC has no authority to reinterpret Section 230 and that the plan would violate the First Amendment.<\/p>\n<p>Pai hasn&#8217;t made any criticism of Trump for influencing the FCC&#8217;s rule-making process, despite having <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/tech-policy\/2017\/12\/obama-didnt-force-fcc-to-impose-net-neutrality-investigation-found\/\">vehemently opposed<\/a> the Obama White House&#8217;s <a
