Hawley demands Zuckerberg testify on alleged ties between Meta, China

"After yesterday's shocking revelations, it's time for Mark Zuckerberg to come to Capitol Hill, take an oath, and answer to America for how he has sold out our country's security for China profits," Hawley wrote in a post on X that included images of his letter to Zuckerberg.

In his letter, Hawley lays out allegations made by Facebook whistleblower Sarah Wynn-Williams during a Judiciary Committee hearing on Wednesday. Wynn-Williams served as the director of global public policy at Facebook for almost seven years.

"We are engaged in a high-stakes AI arms race against China. And during my time at Meta, company executives lied about what they were doing with the Chinese Communist Party to employees, shareholders, Congress, and the American public," Wynn-Williams told the committee.

Then-Sen. Marco Rubio grilled Facebook general counsel Colin Stretch about Wengui's page in 2017. Stretch denied Facebook was ever pressured by China to delete the page.

Meta denies that it does business in China and refutes Wynn-Williams' allegations.
