There were 82 bills introduced in the House and
Senate yesterday. Five of the bills may be of specific interest to readers of
this blog:
HR 702 To adapt to changing crude oil market
conditions. Rep. Barton, Joe [R-TX-6]
HR
705 To amend the authorization in title 49, United States Code, for capital
grants for rail line relocation projects. Rep.
Maloney, Sean Patrick [D-NY-18]
HR
710 To require the Secretary of Homeland Security to prepare a
comprehensive security assessment of the transportation security card program,
and for other purposes. Rep.
Jackson Lee, Sheila [D-TX-18]
HR
726 To prohibit Federal agencies from mandating the deployment of
vulnerabilities in data security technologies. Rep.
Lofgren, Zoe [D-CA-19]
S
356 A bill to improve the provisions relating to the privacy of electronic
communications. Sen. Lee, Mike [R-UT]
HR 702 was actually introduced the day before, but
it was assigned the number ‘HR 666’. Apparently this was considered a bad sign
by Congressman Barton so the bill was re-introduced today. To be fair, anything
that makes it hard for any member to vote for a bill is probably something to
be avoided.
The two cybersecurity bills will probably not receive
future mention here as I suspect that they are principally IT related bills.
Control system language could creep in though.
