House Approves Bill to Elevate Energy Cybersecurity Director Role, Enhancing Response to Electric Grid Threats.

The House of Representatives has approved bipartisan legislation to elevate the Department of Energy’s cybersecurity and emergency response director to a higher level requiring Senate confirmation. The bill, H.R. 3277, was advanced by voice vote and has broad support as Congress tries to combat cyber threats on the electric grid. Concerns have been raised that the Office of Cybersecurity, Energy Security and Emergency Response could lose influence and political standing if its leader is not a Senate-confirmed assistant secretary.
