Tech Howl for September 6

Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg and Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey had their day on Capitol Hill on Wednesday and were largely met with thanks for their help in trying to stop interference in the upcoming midterm elections. Next, Attorney General Jeff Sessions says he will hold a meeting with state attorneys general to discuss whether tech companies are stifling free speech and hurting competition. Finally, Senator Bernie Sanders has introduced a bill aimed squarely at companies that get tax breaks while their employees survive on food stamps.
