TikTok may be facing a crossroads sooner than later, with a divest-or-ban bill getting fast-tracked in Congress.

The bill, which would require TikTok’s Chinese owner ByteDance either to sell the popular social media network or face a ban in the U.S., has been attached to an aid package for Ukraine and Israel, according to a memo issued by House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Republican from Louisiana. 

“We expect the vote on final passage on these bills to be on Saturday evening,” Johnson wrote in the memo to House Republicans.

“It is unfortunate that the House of Representatives is using the cover of important foreign and humanitarian assistance to once again jam through a ban bill that would trample the free speech rights of 170 million Americans, devastate 7 million businesses, and shutter a platform that contributes $24 billion to the U.S. economy, annually,” a TikTok spokesperson told CBS News.
