TikTok Bill Passes Revised Stage in House
House Passes Revised TikTok Bill
On Saturday, the House of Representatives voted in favor of a revised bill that could lead to the potential ban of TikTok in the United States. The bill, which was initially passed by the House in March, would force TikTok's Chinese owner, ByteDance, to sell the app or face a ban. The revised bill includes amendments that would give the Biden administration more flexibility in implementing the ban.
Implications of the Bill
If passed by the Senate and signed into law, the bill would have significant implications for TikTok's operations in the United States. The app, which is popular among young people, has been under scrutiny over concerns about its data collection practices and its ties to the Chinese government. The bill would address these concerns by requiring TikTok to sell its U.S. operations to an American company or face a ban.
The bill's passage in the House is a significant step towards a potential ban on TikTok in the United States. However, it is important to note that the bill still needs to be passed by the Senate and signed into law by President Biden before it can take effect.
The revised bill is expected to be voted on by the Senate in the coming weeks. If passed, it would then head to President Biden's desk for his signature. It remains to be seen whether the bill will ultimately become law, but its passage in the House is a clear indication of the growing concerns about TikTok's operations in the United States.
