This week, U.S. Senator Thom Tillis (R-NC) introduced legislation to prevent taxpayer dollars from being used to establish the Biden administration's Disinformation Governance Board at the Department of Homeland Security.

"The Disinformation Governance Board is an Orwellian attempt by the Biden administration to manipulate and control information they don't like about their failed policies," said Senator Tillis. "Taxpayers shouldn't be footing the bill for this kind of free-speech limiting political experiment, and I am proud to introduce this legislation to defund it."
