Yesterday with both the House and Senate in session there
were 36 bills introduced. Of these, two may be of specific interest to readers of
this blog:
HR 6157
Making appropriations for the Department of Defense for the fiscal year ending
September 30, 2019, and for other purposes. Rep.
Granger, Kay [R-TX-12]
S
3094 A bill to restrict the department in which the Coast Guard is
operating from implementing any rule requiring the use of biometric readers for
biometric transportation security cards until after submission to Congress of
the results of an assessment of the effectiveness of the transportation
security card program. Sen.
Sullivan, Dan [R-AK]
I suspect that S 3094 is a companion bill to HR
5729. The OMB has
approved the Coast Guard’s rule (but the CG has not yet published the rule)
for a limited delay of the TWIC Reader Rule, but it does not appear that that
delay is related to what these two bills are attempting to accomplish.
