WASHINGTON DC — Today, the Supreme Court announced that it would hear oral arguments on the law that requires a divestment of TikTok from foreign adversary control. Earlier this month, the DC Circuit Court ruled against TikTok's challenge in a unanimous decision, declaring, "The First Amendment exists to protect free speech in the United States. Here the government acted solely to protect that freedom from a foreign adversary nation and to limit that adversary's ability to gather data on people in the United States."
Chairman John Moolenaar (R-MI) and Ranking Member Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) of the House Select Committee on the Strategic Competition Between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party wrote to CEOs of TikTok, Apple, and Google following the DC Circuit Court’s 3-0 opinion that upheld the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act.
