Public Response to TikTok's National Ban
Poll:
Do You Support a National TikTok Ban?

Here’s The Scoop
The GOP-led House has taken a stand against the Chinese Communist Party’s attempts to spy on and manipulate Americans, passing a bill that could lead to a ban on the popular social media app, TikTok.
The “Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act” was approved by a 352-65 vote and now heads to the Democrat-controlled Senate.
This legislation aims to prevent app store availability or web hosting services in the U.S. for ByteDance-controlled applications, including TikTok, unless they sever ties with entities like ByteDance that are subject to the control of a foreign adversary. ByteDance must sell TikTok within 180 days of the bill being enacted or risk facing a clampdown in the United States.
