Bills Introduced – 05-14-19


Yesterday with both the House and Senate in session there were 102 bills introduced. Three of these bills may receive additional coverage in this blog:

HR 2705 To establish a Water Infrastructure Trust Fund, and for other purposes. Rep. Blumenauer, Earl [D-OR-3] 

HR 2721 To establish a grant program within the Department of Labor to support the creation, implementation, and expansion of registered apprenticeship programs in cybersecurity. Rep. Lee, Susie [D-NV-3]

S 1466 A bill to establish a grant program within the Department of Labor to support the creation, implementation, and expansion of registered apprenticeship programs in cybersecurity. Sen. Rosen, Jacky [D-NV]

I will be watching the water infrastructure bill to see if it includes language specifically allowing for fund expenditures for chemical security measures or cybersecurity measures; I am not holding my breath.

The other two bills are probably companion measures (identical language). I will be watching them for definitions and language that would specifically include control system cybersecurity apprenticeship programs.
