What it does
The bill would extend the deadline for TikTok to be sold to avoid a ban under the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, increasing the required timeframe from 270 days to 540 days. It affects TikTok and its potential buyers by giving them more time to complete a divestment from foreign adversary control. The change amends Section 2(a)(2)(A) of the existing law to insert 540 days in place of 270 days. This extension aims to provide additional time for compliance with the divestment requirement.
