Supreme Court upholds TikTok ban and the ERA debate - January 18, 2025
The Supreme Court has unanimously upheld the federal law banning TikTok beginning Sunday unless it’s sold by its China-based parent company. President-elect Donald Trump had called on the court to keep the ban on hold until after he takes office Monday and vows to save the app. We talk with Damian Rollison, director of market insights with SOCi, an AI marketing platform. Also on Friday, President Joe Biden called the Equal Rights Amendment "the law of the land."

Congresswoman Theresa Leger Fernandez makes the case for the ERA.
