The US Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs voted unanimously on Wednesday to approve a bill from Republican Senator Josh Hawley that would ban federal employees from using social media app TikTok on government-issued devices. It will now be taken up by the US Senate for a vote. Earlier this week, the House of Representatives voted to bar federal employees from downloading the app on government-issued devices.
