Meta Platforms (META) opened higher Tuesday after lawmakers in both the House of Representatives and the Senate passed legislation that will ban rival social media app TikTok in the United States.
The TikTok ban was added to a larger bill that provides $95 billion in aid to Ukraine and Israel by the House over the weekend and passed there Saturday by a vote of 360-58. On Tuesday, the bill cleared the Senate, 79-18, and now heads to the desk of President Joe Biden, who has said he will sign it.
