Bills Introduced – 3-9-21

Yesterday, with both the House and Senate in session, there were 116 bills introduced. Two of those bills may see additional coverage in this blog:

S 651 A bill to amend SAFETEA-LU to improve the Intelligent Transportation System Program Advisory Committee, to require information and resources for the development of local smart communities, to help establish a 21st century transportation workforce, and for other purposes. Sen. Cortez Masto, Catherine [D-NV]

S 652 A bill to direct the Secretary of Transportation to establish the Strengthening Mobility and Revolutionizing Transportation (SMART) Challenge Grant Program to promote technological innovation in our Nation's communities. Sen. Cortez Masto, Catherine [D-NV]

I will be watching both bills for language and definitions that indicate that transportation cybersecurity concerns are being addressed.
