Sponsored by Indian American Raja Krishnamoorthi, US House passes TikTok crackdown bill

The US House of Representatives on Wednesday passed legislation, co-introduced by Indian American Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi, with an overwhelming bipartisan vote that could lead to the banning of the popular social media platform TikTok. The fate of the app, used monthly by 170 million Americans, now rests with the Senate where some lawmakers have vowed to prevent the law’s speedy passage.
