On Tuesday, the Senate, by a vote of 69-30, passed a $1 trillion infrastructure spending bill that would provide additional money for cybersecurity over the next several years, including extra funds for the Department of Homeland Security and its Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.
The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act will now be considered by the House. Some Democratic members of the House want to see changes in the measure, The New York Times reports. Plus, they’re seeking promises the Senate will take up another broader spending bill before the House takes action on the infrastructure measure.
