Isn't it against the law for an elected official to block someone this way?

Replying to @NRSC
Can't do it, Justices have already ruled on this

Aren’t personal accounts allowed to block, but not the elected official accounts?

quote:

The Supreme Court on Friday ruled that public officials who post about topics relating to their work on their personal social media accounts are acting on behalf of the government, and therefore can be held liable for violating the First Amendment when they block their critics, only when they have the power to speak on behalf of the state and are actually exercising that power.
