The House on Wednesday approved legislation that would require TikTok’s Chinese parent company, ByteDance, to sell it within 180 days or risk having the app barred from app stores and web hosting services in the United States.

The vote in favor was overwhelming, but that doesn’t ensure the measure will become law. It must still be considered by the Senate, where Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) on Tuesday said he might block any swift consideration, something he did a year ago to a similar bill.
