HR 2217 Introduced – DHS FY2014 Appropriations

As I noted in an earlier blog post HR 2217, Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act, 2014, was introduced last week by Rep. Carter (R,TX), Chair of the Homeland Security Subcommittee of the House Appropriations Committee. There are no significant changes in the portions of the bill dealing with chemical facility security, TSA Surface Transportation or cybersecurity from when I reported on the Subcommittee draft of the bill. The Committee Report (H Rept 113-91) has not changed in regards to those same areas since I reported on the Committee Draft of that report.
