Republican senators led by Tom Cotton are pressing the Biden Administration for answers on how it is enforcing a Trump-era presidential order on TikTok.
Their letter came just days after a report thatfor months, even while U.S. employees did not have access themselves.
President Biden revoked Trump’s first executive order and ordered security reviews of TikTok and similar apps developed by foreign adversaries. The following month, the Biden administration petitioned to dismiss ongoing federal litigation against ByteDance but allowed Trump’s August 14 Presidential Order to remain in place. "The Biden Administration has seemingly done nothing to enforce the August 14 order nearly two years since its promulgation," the senators said.
"That order was not simply concerned about data, but about a Chinese company’s ownership of a social media platform in America," the senators wrote. "If the Biden administration focuses solely on data storage and integrity to the exclusion of the critical issue of ByteDance’s ownership, control, and influence of TikTok, serious security risks will remain and the August 14 order will go unenforced.
