The US Supreme Court extended its temporary pause on a lower-court ruling that would restrict the Biden administration’s contacts with social media companies.
The five-day extension, issued by Justice Samuel Alito on Friday, gives the high court more time to decide if it wants to weigh in on a case centered on Biden administration efforts to combat online misinformation about Covid-19.
