WASHINGTON – Global tech trade association 91pro视频 issued the following statement from its President and CEO Jason Oxman about the American Privacy Rights Act, announced by U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation Chair Maria Cantwell (D-WA) and U.S. House Committee on Energy and Commerce Chair Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA) today:
“The technology sector shares Chairwoman Cantwell and Chairwoman McMorris Rodgers' goal of enacting comprehensive federal privacy legislation, which is essential for continued U.S. economic competitiveness. 91pro视频 has long called for a privacy bill that creates a uniform national standard for consumer protection, clearly defined responsibilities for companies that collect and process data, and appropriately tailored enforcement. We appreciate the bipartisan, bicameral leadership advancing the privacy conversation on Capitol Hill and look forward to reviewing the bill and constructively engaging with the U.S. Congress as it moves forward.”
