Bill Summary

A BILL To repeal the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act.

AI Summary

This bill seeks to completely repeal the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, which originally aimed to ban TikTok in the United States. Specifically, the bill would eliminate the entire legal framework that allowed for designating and restricting applications controlled by foreign adversaries. The repeal would be comprehensive and retroactive, meaning that any previous designations of websites, mobile apps, desktop applications, or augmented/immersive technology applications as foreign adversary controlled would be immediately nullified and considered to have no legal standing. By using the phrase "have no force or effect," the bill ensures that all previous actions and potential restrictions under the original act would be completely invalidated. The bill's short title, "Repeal the TikTok Ban Act," directly reflects its primary purpose of stopping the potential nationwide ban of the TikTok social media platform.
