Last week Rep. Langevin (D,RI) introduced HR 1049,
the Department of Defense Emergency Response Capabilities Database Enhancement Act
of 2017. This is a companion bill to S
307; that is an identical bill introduced to allow for simultaneous action
by both houses of Congress instead of serial consideration.
Langevin is a member of the House Armed Services Committee,
the committee to which this bill was referred for consideration. This means
that it is possible that he could have enough influence to have this bill
considered in committee. As I mentioned with S 307, there is nothing in this
bill which should engender significant opposition.
