Bills Introduced – 6-27-22

On Monday, with neither the House nor Senate in session, there were two bills introduced. One of those bills may receive additional coverage in this blog:

HR 8239 Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2023 Rep. Bishop, Sanford D., Jr. [D-GA-2]

I will be watching this bill for language and definition in both the bill and the Committee Report that includes reference to control system cybersecurity issues.

I missed these on Tuesday when they (HR 8248, the Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2023, was the other bill) were available on Congress.gov. Yesterday’s Daily Digest noted that the Appropriations Committee had published a report on these two bills, but they were not included in the list of bills introduced yesterday in the House pro forma session. It is very unusual for bills to be officially introduced with neither house in session. When it does happen, it usually involves an ‘important’ bill like these spending bills.
