STORY: "It's dangerous to put all your eggs in one basket."

Content creators Si and Lauren Willis, who go by Consuming Couple on TikTok, say they're not worried about a bill passed by the U.S. House of Representatives that could lead to a nationwide ban of the popular app.

"We're somewhat indifferent about it. It's obviously a factor and something we need to think about, but we have Instagram as well. We have YouTube, other platforms, so it's not the end of the world. It's not ideal and it's going to take five or six months, so hopefully we can bring the audience over to Instagram if it does get further passed in the Senate."

The husband-and-wife duo, who make videos about eating and recommending global cuisine in New York City, have nearly 439,000 followers on TikTok.

That's a much larger following than what their Instagram and YouTube channels garner, but they say the social media landscape is always changing.

“In the beginning when TikTok kind of first was blowing up, I guess pandemic, post-pandemic, actually a ton more of our partnerships came from TikTok and over time it's shifted over. So I think that's just showing the volatile nature of digital media and how things are just constantly changing."

TikTok content creators rallied on Capitol Hill Wednesday to protest the House bill, with travel and accommodations to Washington paid for by the Chinese-owned company, according to a spokesperson.

Duke Alexander Moore of duke-loves-taxes said he's a TikTok success story.

“TikTok has done something very amazing for me as far as starting my tax business. [FLASH] I went from literally sleeping in my truck, to living in a penthouse, to now employing people.”

STEVEN KING, TIKTOK CREATOR FOR BTYPEP: “TikTok has allowed my dreams that I used to have as a child to come true. I would hate the dreams of all of the other people that use the app that are inspired and educated for those dreams to be crushed.”

The House bill is the latest in a series of moves in Washington to respond to U.S. national security concerns about China. It would give TikTok's Chinese owner ByteDance about six months to divest the U.S. assets of the short-video app, or face a ban.

"I don't think they've been open and transparent enough with people because the users and 170 million people use it. I don't think 95% of them know why it's being banned. I don't think it's clear enough and different states have tried to ban it and they're basically just saying, 'China.'"

On Thursday, former U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin of the Trump administration told CNBC he is putting together an investor group to try to buy TikTok

It's unclear whether China would approve any sale of TikTok or if it's U.S. assets could be divested in six months.
