House to Begin Consideration of HR 7900 – FY 2023 NDAA

Today, the House is scheduled to take up HR 7900, the FY 2023 National Defense Authorization Act, under a structured rule. The Rule for the consideration of the bill allows 650 of the 1212 amendments proposed to the Rules Committee to be considered on the floor. Many (most) of those amendments will be considered en bloc, but it will still take some time to get through the amendment process. A final vote on the bill will probably come tomorrow.

Of the 650 amendments that may be offered, the following are the ones that include significant ‘cyber’ language:

#68 Bergman (R,MI) - Foreign State Computer Intrusions [HR 1607, no action],

#183 Houlahan (D,PA) - Department of Defense Cyber and Digital Service Academy,

#260 Moulton (D,MA) - Tailored Cyberspace Operations Organizations,
