Senators Durbin and Graham issued subpoenas to X, Snap, and Discord CEOs to testify on online child sexual exploitation. The Senate Judiciary Committee required U.S. Marshals' assistance to serve the subpoenas, a departure from typical practice. X, formerly Twitter, stated they are working in good faith to participate. Snap's CEO agreed to testify, while Discord's response is pending. Meta and TikTok are expected to testify voluntarily on Dec. 6.
