The DC Circuit Court has upheld the Protecting Americans From Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, dismissing TikTok's attempt to challenge the legislation. This law was enacted with strong bipartisan support. Statements from key figures in the Select Committee were released following the court's decision.

Chairman Moolenaar stated, "Today’s ruling is a victory for the American people and TikTok users, and a loss for the Chinese Communist Party, which will no longer be able to exploit ByteDance’s control over TikTok to undermine our sovereignty, surveil our citizens, and threaten our national security. I am optimistic that President Trump will facilitate an American takeover of TikTok to allow its continued use in the United States and I look forward to welcoming the app in America under new ownership."

Ranking Member Krishnamoorthi commented on the ruling by saying, "With today’s opinion, all three branches of government have reached the same conclusion: ByteDance is controlled by the Chinese Communist Party, and TikTok’s ownership by ByteDance is a national security threat that cannot be mitigated through any other means than divestiture. It’s time for ByteDance to accept that the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, which I co-authored, is the law of the land. Every day that TikTok remains under the Chinese Communist Party’s control is a day that our security is at risk."
