Bills Introduced – 05-09-16

With just the Senate in session, the House returns today, there were a dozen bills introduced yesterday. Of those one may be of specific interest to readers of this blog:

S 2905 A bill to require the President to develop a policy for determining when an action carried out in cyberspace constitutes an act of war against the United States, and for other purposes. Sen. Rounds, Mike [R-SD]

This bill is almost certainly political grandstanding, but it is does have potentially serious cybersecurity implications if it does move forward. It will be interesting to see how the bill is actually worded.
