With both the House and Senate back in Washington after
their 4th of July recess there is a relatively light committee
hearing schedule. Only two hearings of interest here; one on grid cybersecurity
and a Rules Committee hearing on the House version of the NDAA.
Grid Cybersecurity
On Friday, the Energy Subcommittee of the House Energy and
Commerce Committee will hold a
hearing on “Keeping The Lights On: Addressing Cyber Threats To The Grid”. The
witness list is not yet available.
HR 2500 Rule
On Tuesday the House Rules Committee will meet to consider HR
2500, the FY 2020 National Defense Authorization Act. To date, a total of
658 amendments have been submitted to the Committee for consideration. This
hearing will determine which of those amendments will be considered on the
Floor of the House.
The bill is currently scheduled to be considered on the
floor starting on Wednesday with a final vote likely on Friday.
NOTE: While there had been some talk about including the DHS
appropriations bill (still not published by the House Appropriations Committee)
in this bill as a way to move that forward, it does not look like that will
happen.
