Bills Introduced – 05-22-19

Yesterday with both the House and Senate in session, there were 102 bills introduced. Two of those bills may see future coverage in this blog:

HR 2915 To amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to require physicians and physician's offices to be treated as covered device users required to report on certain adverse events involving medical devices, and for other purposes.  Rep. Fitzpatrick, Brian K. [R-PA-1] 

S 1589 An original bill to authorize appropriations for fiscal years 2018, 2019, and 2020 for intelligence and intelligence-related activities of the United States Government, the Community Management Account, and the Central Intelligence Agency Retirement and Disability System, and for other purposes. Sen. Burr, Richard [R-NC]

I will be watching HR 2915 to see if the ‘certain adverse events’ covered in the bill specifically include cyber events.
