Lautenberg Bills Update

The two chemical security related bills that I reported on last night were reported in yesterday’s Congressional Record and the ThomalLOC.gov web site today. This allows me to provide some more details on these bills. As I predicted the official copies of the two bills are still not available on the GPO web site. I would expect them to be available early next week. Water Facilities Security Act The WFSA was introduced as S. 3598. It was co-sponsored by Sen. Gillibrand (D, NY). As I expected the bill was referred to the Committee on Environment and Public Works. Chemical Facilities Security Act The CFSA was introduces as S 3999. It was also co-sponsored by Sen. Gillibrand. Also as expected it was referred to the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs.
