Edit: I’m an idiot and can’t read: I thought this was referring to backfiring on the reps, not TikTok. Original comment remains below:
The BBC should settle down lol, it didn’t backfire. Some group of aides took 900 calls, probably tallied it up on a few sticky notes, and passed them to a rep who tossed it in a bin.
it unanimously passed committee (!!!)
it’s practically certain to pass the house
it’s practically certain to pass the senate
it’s guaranteed to be signed by biden
Sounds like a backfire to me. Did you read the article? The lobbying was from TikTok to prevent the bill from passing, but it sounds like it just made the reps more committed to passing it.
Yeah I completely derped on who this backfired on… That explains my confusion 😂 the rest of my comment remains relevant after the first sentence
