Privacy for America Statement on Bipartisan Draft Privacy Legislation from House Energy & Commerce Staff

We applaud the staff of the House Energy and Commerce Committee for today’s release of a considered and bipartisan draft of a comprehensive federal privacy bill. We will review the draft bill and look forward to working with members next year to help pass a national privacy standard that provides real safeguards for consumers while ensuring that the economies of scale, consumer benefits, and innovation that accompany the responsible use of data are preserved.
