Yesterday the House Rules Committee set the rule for today’s
consideration of additional amendments to HR 6157, Department of Defense
Appropriations Act, 2019. Two cyber related amendments from the list I
described last week were added to the total of 29 amendments to be considered
today.
The two amendments were:
• #4 from Rep. Hastings (D,FL); it
would add $5 million dollars for training and retention of cybersecurity
personnel DOD wide (it was #31
on the original list); and
• #21 from Rep. Langevin (D,RI); it would add $10
million to the existing Cyber Scholarship program (it was #57
on the original list)
Both amendments are likely to be approved by voice votes.
