I understand. When I said he made the law I meant this:

On April 24, 2024, President Joseph Biden signed into law emergency supplemental appropriations (Pub. Law No. 118-50) that, among numerous measures, included the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act. This now enacted law is most widely known for its efforts to ban Chinese-owned TikTok and comes after prior attempts to address any potential national security concerns failed.

Why would he do that and then not enforce it?
