This evening the House took up HR 4470, the Protecting and Securing Chemical Facilities from Terrorist Attacks Act of 2023, under the suspension of the rules process. There was about 16-minutes of debate and a recorded vote was demanded. The House voted 409 to 1 to pass the bill. The sole no vote came from Rep Massie (R,KY).
To get this bill to President Biden in time to save the
Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards (CFATS) from expiring, the Senate
will have to take up the bill tomorrow under their unanimous consent process. A
single objection would kill that process.
