A TikTok ban is wrapped in Speaker Johnson’s foreign aid package: What happens next?
==========
A ban on TikTok in the United States is included in Speaker Mike Johnson and House Republicans' $95 billion foreign aid package. The proposed legislation gives TikTok's parent company ByteDance 270 days to divest from the app or face a U.S. ban, with a possible one-time extension of 90 days. The House is expected to vote on the aid package, including the TikTok ban, on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. If the bills pass and are sent to the Senate, Majority Leader Chuck Schumer would need the fourth bill that includes the TikTok ban to address foreign aid. TikTok has expressed concern about the speed of the legislation and is formulating a response. The previous TikTok bill passed in the House in March and was criticized by TikTok as a "total ban."
