“Congressional offices are getting bombarded with calls from TikTok users, as the House is poised to move on a bill that would force the sale of the social media app by its Chinese owner or face a ban from app stores,” Politico reports.
“Multiple House GOP staffers say they are being bombarded with calls — mostly from people they believe are teenagers — who are concerned that the bill would shut down the popular video app entirely. While the legislation does not call for an outright ban, that hasn’t stopped TikTok officials from peddling that claim to rally its users.”
