The ad is set to air on TV and on digital platforms across several swing states such as Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cTikTok is building a profile on every American user and has become a digital fentanyl,\u201d the voiceover in the ad states. \u201cRepublicans and Democrats in Washington agree on one thing: We need to stop China by stopping TikTok. Call Sen. Chuck Schumer to bring the TikTok bill to a vote.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The ad comes after the House overwhelmingly voted in favor of a bill to force ByteDance, the Chinese-based owner of TikTok, to divest itself from the popular social media platform. The legislation was met with bipartisan support as both Republicans and Democrats have expressed national security concerns and have backed widespread restrictions for years. <\/p>\n<p>However, some lawmakers expressed concerns with the way the legislation was structured, raising questions about how such a measure would be enforced. The legislation wouldn\u2019t implement an outright ban on the app \u2014\u00a0instead, it would block it from U.S. app stores and web hosting services if ByteDance refused to sell its ownership. <\/p>\n<p>Although the bill passed in a 352-65 vote in the House, its future in the Senate remains unclear. The leaders of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Sens. Mark Warner (D-VA) and Marco Rubio (R-FL), have pushed for the bill\u2019s swift passage. However, Democratic leadership has been noncommittal, while some conservatives have reconsidered their stance after former President Donald Trump came out against the bill. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title><strong>CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Senators, like their House counterparts, can expect a push from TikTok advocates to vote against the bill should it come to the floor.
