Senators from both parties are engaged in a heated debate following Sen. Maria Cantwell's recent comments regarding the House-passed bill that would require TikTok to divest from China. Cantwell, chairwoman of the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation, expressed skepticism about the bill's viability, sparking a wave of reactions.
Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., voiced his lack of surprise at Cantwell's stance, emphasizing his earlier predictions. The House bill, which garnered significant support in the House of Representatives, now sits with the Commerce Committee in the Senate, under Cantwell's jurisdiction.
