Privacy for America Statement on Data Privacy Legislative Draft by Reps. McMorris Rodgers and Bilirakis

Today’s announcement from Reps. McMorris Rodgers and Bilirakis is the latest reminder that there is broad support to enact comprehensive data privacy legislation in Congress. We note that there are significant areas of agreement in proposals advanced by members of both parties on the core principles to protect all Americans. We encourage members of Congress to come together to reach agreement on a framework that will lead to real privacy protections for consumers – no matter where they live – and establish clear rules of the road that allow for the responsible use of data. We look forward to working with lawmakers in both chambers to make a comprehensive privacy law a reality in the United States.
