Two U.S. senators will file legislation this week that would pave the way for the government to “ban or prohibit” foreign technology businesses in the United States—including the Chinese video-sharing app TikTok, Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.) said.

TikTok would be “one of the potentials” for consideration under the proposed bipartisan legislation, Warner, the head of the Senate Intelligence Committee, told “Fox News Sunday” on March 5.
