Top congressional aides met with Oracle on Tuesday to talk about TikTok, which faces a ban in the United States unless it is sold to a non-Chinese owner by early April.

Vice President JD Vance told reporters Friday there will “almost certainly” be some kind of agreement before Trump’s block on the TikTok ban expires April 5.

The tech-focused outlet The Information reported Thursday that Oracle is a “leading contender” to run TikTok, with ByteDance preferring it for the role. The details about the White House’s approach and the seriousness with which White House officials are considering the proposal have not previously been reported.
