Tony Cárdenas: “It is a chronic, treatable disease of the brain, and it is driven by cravings.”

As was mentioned earlier, it might sound a little funny, but you have in fact been one of the few people to unite this committee--Members, Republicans and Democrats--to be in agreement that we are frustrated with TikTok.

Thank you very much. Appreciate Chairman Bilirakis, and also Ranking Member Schakowsky, for holding this hearing.

Honestly, it came down to prayers and aspirin, which are--which was the way that we handled things most of the time.
