Washington, D.C. - Today, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik voted to pass the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act which would require app stores and web hosting services to remove Chinese Communist Party (CCP) controlled applications, including TikTok, unless the app severs ties to entities controlled by a foreign adversary.
“I have consistently said that Tik Tok is a national security threat. I co-led this important legislation to stop CCP owned TikTok from continuing to infect our society and poison the minds of young Americans with pro-Communist China propaganda,” said Congresswoman Elise Stefanik. “We cannot allow our adversaries to build an arsenal of data on American citizens that can be used to exploit and weaponize them.”
