U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions will meet with state attorneys general later this month to discuss concerns that tech companies "may be hurting competition and intentionally stifling the free exchange of ideas on their platforms," the Department of Justice said in a statement Wednesday.

The proposed meeting between the country's top prosecutor and state officials lends legitimacy to recent claims by President Donald Trump of political bias and censorship by major social firms.
