Referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.
The bill creates a Digital Economy and Cybersecurity Board of Advisors inside the NTIA to provide recommendations on cybersecurity best practices, policies, supply-chain security, and removing barriers to trust and innovation, including securing the Border Gateway Protocol. The Assistant Secretary appoints 5–25 unpaid members with specified expertise and representation requirements, prohibits registered lobbyists, allows subcommittees (which must report to the Board), permits removal at the Assistant Secretary’s discretion, and sunsets the Board four years after enactment.
Left/center emphasize public interest, privacy, and coordination needs
Procedurally simple, narrow, and technical; likely noncontroversial but may languish if not prioritized.
