A bill including a deadline for TikTok parent company Bytedance to divest within nine months or face a ban on app stores to distribute the app in the U.S., was signed by President Joe Biden.
The bill's critics argue that the U.S. is unfairly targeting a well-loved social network when the government could be dealing with household issues that directly benefit Americans.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer initially said the Senate 'will review the legislation when it comes over from the House.'
Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Mark Warner and Republican committee counterpart Marco Rubio support a forced sale or ban for TikTok due to national security concerns.
