Pressure is mounting on Facebook to take responsibility for its white supremacist problem. In the wake of a host of major advertisers stepping away from the platform, three U.S. Senators have sent a letter to Facebook asking why it can’t seem to clean up its act and enforce its own rules.

U.S. Senators Mark R. Warner (D-VA), Mazie K. Hirono (D-HI), and Bob Menendez (D-NJ) signed the letter, which calls out Facebook for publicly aligning itself with the Black Lives Matter movement while profiting from white supremacist content on its platform. “Its failure to address the hate spreading on its platform reveals significant gaps between Facebook’s professed commitment to racial justice and the company’s actions and business interests,” the Senators said.
