Some U.S. lawmakers are advocating for an extension on the deadline for TikTok's Beijing parent company to sell U.S. assets before a ban takes effect.

President Joe Biden's administration said it will be up to President-elect Donald Trump to implement the ban on TikTok, which is set to take effect in two days after the Supreme Court upheld the law Friday.

President Joe Biden won’t enforce a ban on the social media app TikTok that is set to take effect a day before he leaves office on Monday, a U.S.

There are only a couple of days left until the deadline set by the “anti-TikTok bill” signed by Joe Biden last year is met. If ByteDance does not sell its US stake before January 19, it will not be able to continue operating in the country.

TikTok said it will have to “go dark” this weekend unless the outgoing Biden administration assures the company it won’t enforce a shutdown of the popular app after the Supreme Court on Friday unanimously upheld the federal law banning the app unless it’s sold by its China-based parent company.

On Wednesday, incoming Trump National Security Adviser Mike Waltz told Fox News that Trump is ready to step in to stop the ban. Similarly, Trump’s attorney general nominee Pam Bondi did not commit to enforcing the ban during her Wednesday Senate confirmation hearing.

A growing number of lawmakers are urging President Joe Biden to grant a reprieve to prevent TikTok from going dark in the United States as soon as Sunday, warning millions of creators and businesses could be hurt.

President Joe Biden won’t enforce a ban on the social media app TikTok that is set to take effect a day before he leaves office, a U.S. official says.

Congress last year in a law signed by President Joe Biden required that TikTok’s China-based parent company ByteDance divest the company by Jan. 19 or risk getting banned in the U.S.

U.S. Supreme Court has upheld the TikTok ban, leaving the app's future uncertain. With Joe Biden set to demit office soon, questions arise regarding whether he will enforce this decision as one of his final acts.

The Supreme Court upheld a law banning TikTok in the US over national security concerns unless its Chinese parent ByteDance sells it. Without immediate assurances from the Biden administration, the app will go dark on January 19.
