I urge you to cosponsor and support the Extend the TikTok Deadline Act introduced by Senator Markey. This legislation aims to grant Congress more time to thoroughly review potential national security risks posed by TikTok's data collection and censorship practices influenced by the Chinese government. Protecting Americans' privacy and data security from foreign adversaries must be a top priority, but it's important to note that many Americans now depend on Tik Tok for their businesses, and any decision impacting the app should take into account its economic impact. Extending the deadline allows for a comprehensive risk assessment to be conducted before any rash decisions are made regarding TikTok's future operation in the United States. This prudent approach safeguards both our civil liberties and national interests.
