WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The chair of the U.S. House of Representatives Homeland Security and a key subcommittee demanded Twitter (NYSE:TWTR) Chief Executive Parag Agrawal address “disturbing whistleblower allegations regarding poor security and privacy practices.”

Representatives Bennie Thompson and Yvette Clarke also asked Twitter in a letter Thursday to detail its preparations for the 2022 elections and answer allegations raised by former Twitter security chief Peiter “Mudge” Zatko that the social media company misled regulators.
