#InvestigateNow

We need transparency, fairness, and policies based on evidence—not fear. Stand with us to protect the millions of Americans whose lives are tied to this platform.

TikTok is more than an app—it’s a lifeline for creators, small businesses, and communities. Let’s fight for innovation, free markets, and the American spirit of entrepreneurship. #SaveTikTok 💪

Call to Action:
To @SenSchumer, @SenGillibrand, @CoryBooker, and @JohnMannionNY: Stand up for fairness, transparency, and the millions of Americans who depend on TikTok. Reconsider this ban and debate it on standalone merits.

Banning TikTok doesn’t solve hypothetical problems. Instead, it creates real harm for millions of Americans who rely on the platform.

6. An unfair process.
TikTok wasn’t given a fair chance to address Congress’ concerns. Divestment isn’t simple and would take years to rewrite code due to PRC export laws. Yet TikTok has already shown its willingness to cooperate.

5. A blow to free market principles.
Banning TikTok undermines the free market and sets a dangerous precedent: If a tech innovation gets popular, the government can shut it down over vague concerns. Is that the future we want?

This ban isn’t about national security—it’s about fear and misunderstanding of a platform that’s changed the way we connect, create, and communicate.

4. TikTok is American-made.
Headquarters in Santa Monica, CA, since 2017.
ByteDance was funded by American venture capital firms, like Sequoia Capital.
Four out of five ByteDance board members are American.

For many, TikTok income is the difference between safe housing or not, a full fridge or an empty one. Banning it jeopardizes real lives, livelihoods, and small businesses across the country.

3. TikTok is an economic powerhouse.
- $24 billion contributed to the U.S. GDP annually.
- 7M+ small businesses rely on TikTok for marketing and sales.
- Hundreds of thousands of creators earn vital income, often covering essentials like rent, food, and education.

Studies, like Citizen Lab’s 2021 report, confirm TikTok isn’t sharing data with the Chinese government. In fact, TikTok collects less user data than platforms like Meta or Snapchat. Why single it out without evidence?

2. No evidence of national security threats.
U.S. intelligence has shown no proof that TikTok posed a real threat. Instead, TikTok has taken steps to address concerns by storing U.S. data domestically in Texas and Virginia, managed by Oracle.

1. The "bipartisan support" narrative is misleading.
The TikTok ban wasn’t debated on its own merits in Congress. It was hidden in a humanitarian aid package that President Biden signed. The support was for the aid, not the ban. We deserve transparency.
