They already ruled Trump, as president, couldn't block people on twitter so this just extends it out to all elected officials. They should have gone a step further and said that social media companies cannot ban elected officials since that prohibits the public from hearing their official statements.

That's part of the can of worms opened by that initial Trump ruling

They still want to be able to do that to the politicians with the wrong message from the wrong party though
