Today the House Homeland Security Committee announced that its
Subcommittee on Emergency Preparedness, Response and Communications would hold
a markup hearing on Thursday that would look at three separate bills. Those
bills are:
• HR
3283, the Integrated Public Alert and Warning System Modernization Act of
2013;
• HR
4263, the Social Media Working Group Act of 2014; and
• A new bill, the Department of
Homeland Security Interoperable Communications Act
Links to substitute language for both HR
3283 and HR
4263 have been provided. The hearing page also includes a link to the
Committee Draft of the new bill. I’ll have appropriate comments on all three
posted before the hearing.
I suspect that these three closely related bills will
continue to work their way through the legislative process linked in close
proximity to each other.
