House votes to ban TikTok in US unless Chinese owner ByteDance sells to American company

• The House voted in favor of a bill that could result in an American ban on TikTok.
• The bill would force TikTok owner ByteDance to sell to an American company or face a ban.
• The bill now heads to the Senate, where it's also expected to pass.

The House advanced legislation on Saturday that could lead to a TikTok ban in the United States.

The bill forces TikTok's Chinese owner, ByteDance, to secure American ownership in about a year or face a domestic ban. Earlier versions of the legislation gave ByteDance just six months to find a new owner.
