Congressional Hearings – Week of 1-26-20

With the House back from their MLK break and the Senate still sitting in their impeachment proceeding there are a limited number of committee hearings this week. There is one markup hearing of interest by the House Homeland Security Committee.

Markup Hearing

On Wednesday the House Homeland Security Committee will hold a markup hearing. The bills to be reviewed include HR 5667, the Cybersecurity Vulnerability Identification and Notification Act of 2019. This bill was introduced last Friday, and the official version has yet to be printed. I have briefly reviewed the committee print and it looks to be similar to S 3045 but there are some interesting definitions related to operational technology that I look forward to reviewing in depth.
