Chairman Cotton Applauds Unanimous Supreme Court Decision to Uphold TikTok Ban

Washington, D.C. — Senator Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas), Chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, released the following statement on the Supreme Court’s unanimous decision to uphold the Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act.

“ByteDance and its Chinese Communist masters had nine months to sell TikTok before the Sunday deadline. The very fact that Communist China refuses to permit its sale reveals exactly what TikTok is: a communist spy app. The Supreme Court correctly rejected TikTok’s lies and propaganda masquerading as legal arguments.”
