Privacy for America’s Statement on Representative DelBene’s Data Privacy Legislation

Privacy for America welcomes Congresswoman DelBene’s initiative to enact federal data privacy legislation and her substantive contribution to the discussion. Now is the time to enact a national privacy law that establishes greater protections for consumers, regardless of where they live, clear rules of the road for businesses, and a strong enforcement mandate and enhanced capabilities for the Federal Trade Commission. We look forward to working with the Congresswoman and other legislators in both chambers to advance legislation and help build the consensus necessary to enact a federal data privacy law.
