Congressman Jim Banks is back on Twitter after he deleted a tweet that went against the platform’s Terms of Service.
Banks sent a tweet about Dr. Rachel Levine on October 19. She was a transgender lady who just became the first transgender four star officer in America’s uniformed services.
“The title of first female four-star officer gets taken by a man,” he tweeted. On October 23, Twitter removed the tweet for violating a rule against “targeted misgendering.”
Banks deleted the tweet to gain access to his account but said he stands by what he said.
“Twitter provides a crucial platform for elected officials to communicate with voters, which is part of what makes Twitter’s biased and arbitrary censorship so dangerous,” he said. “Fighting the left’s censorship will remain a priority of mine for as long as I’m in Congress.”
