"All of this comes after Democrats won control of the Senate with victories in the two runoff elections in Georgia on Tuesday. Raphael Warnock won his race against Republican Sen. Kelly Loeffler and Jon Ossoff defeated Republican Sen. David Purdue to give the Senate a 50-50 split between Democrats and Republicans. The new senators will be sworn in later this month, following the election's certification. With Vice President-elect Kamala Harris the tie-breaking vote in the chamber, Democrats will have more power to push legislation through committees in the Senate and get it to the floor for a vote.
This will give Democrats greater influence to push their tech agendas, which already included skepticism about the size and power of big tech companies."
