Congress took a significant step towards potentially banning TikTok nationwide with the finalization of legislation on Tuesday. The bill, which passed the Senate as part of a broader foreign aid package supporting Israel and Ukraine, was approved by the House on Saturday. The legislation now awaits President Joe Biden's signature.
If signed into law, the bill would require TikTok to either find a new owner within a few months or face a complete ban in the United States. This development marks a significant escalation in the ongoing scrutiny and challenges faced by the popular social media platform.
