The Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia University said on Thursday it has asked Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to unblock any Twitter users she has barred on the basis of their political views. The Knight Institute, which successfully sued President Donald Trump over his decision to block dozens of users on Twitter from his personal @realdonaldtrump account, wrote Ocasio-Cortez urging her not to block followers because of their views. Ocasio-Cortez, a first-term New York Democrat, was sued in July by former Democratic New York state Assemblyman Dov Hikind for blocking him from her personal @AOC account.
