We've closed up our Twitter account. A platform whose owner uses it to bait violent anti-democratic conspiracy theories and engage in overt anti-semitism is not a place compatible with our mission to inform, create accountability, and improve democracy.

@GovTrack Welcome!
The popup on your site still says "Follow @GovTrack on Twitter for posts about legislative activity and other information we’re tracking, and some commentary."
Also, I'd love to hear about your decision to join this instance vs run your own.

The public square is where I expect to find all these kinds of accounts. It is a gathering place

@SusanKraemer @GovTrack What are you referring to as "The public square" here?

@sparr Fixed now, thanks for pointing it out. The decision to join this instance was just that it was the fastest to get going, since we can always change instances later.
