"Senate's Slow Progress on TikTok Bill Sparks Economic Concerns and China's Opposition"
TL;DR Summary
Legislation to force TikTok's Chinese owner, ByteDance, to sell the app or face a ban in the United States passed through the House but has slowed in the Senate, where there is uncertainty about its progress. Senators are considering their own versions of bills targeting TikTok, and the process of potentially rewriting the House bill to suit the Senate could be time-consuming. This slowdown means that TikTok is likely to face weeks or even months of uncertainty about its fate in the United States.
