Jayapal, who chairs the Progressive Congressional Caucus, responded to the news of Greene's ban on MSNBC's "The Sunday Show," stating that social media companies have to be doing "much, much more" to stop the spread of conspiracy theories online.
"It's no secret that our social media companies have been part of their algorithms promoting disinformation," she said. "And I think that these steps are important but, frankly, a little too little and a little too late.”

"The reality is it's not just Marjorie Taylor Greene – all over Twitter, social media, Facebook, all of these companies have been using algorithms that are just about clickbait, not about truth," she went on. "And so if we are going to take on the disinformation that's out there, the big lie, and everything that goes along with it, then yes, this is a part of it but it's got to be much, much more."

"When Maxine Waters can go to the streets and threaten violence on Twitter, Kamala and Ilhan can bail out rioters on Twitter, and Chief spokesman for terrorist IRGC can tweet mourning Soleimani but I get suspended for tweeting VAERS statistics, Twitter is an enemy to America and can't handle the truth," Greene wrote. "That's fine, I'll show America we don't need them and it's time to defeat our enemies."
