House Passes HR 6160 – CFATS Extension

Yesterday (actually early this morning) the House took up HR 6160 under the unanimous consent process and passed the bill. There was no debate and no vote. The bill will extend the current CFATS program through October 18^th, 2021. The program authority is currently set to expire on April 18^th, 2020.

This early action by Rep. Thompson (D,MS) sends the bill to the Senate. The bill will almost certainly be taken up there under similar proceedings.
