RECOVER PII Act Reducing the Effects of the Cyberattack on OPM...
A bill to amend the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2017 to extend the availability of identity protection coverage to individuals whose personally identifiable information was compromised during recent data breaches at Federal agencies, and for other purposes.
This bill, SB5217, aims to update the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2017 by providing extended identity protection coverage to individuals who have had their personal information compromised in recent data breaches at federal agencies. This means that those affected by these breaches would receive more support to safeguard their identity and prevent misuse of their information.
The bill would primarily affect individuals whose personal information was compromised in federal data breaches. These individuals would benefit from additional protections and services to help them monitor and secure their personal information.
Currently, SB5217 has been introduced and read twice in the Senate. It has been referred to the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs for further review. This means it is still in the early stages of the legislative process, and no further actions have been taken yet. Key next steps will include committee review, possible amendments, and votes in the Senate.
