Montana lawmakers voted on April 14 to ban TikTok, a popular Chinese-owned video-sharing platform, sending the bill to Gov. Greg Gianforte’s desk for his consideration.

Lawmakers in the Republican-led state House voted 54–43 to give final approval to the legislation. If the measure is signed, Montana will become the first U.S. state to impose a complete ban on the platform.
