Chairmen Green, Garbarino, Rep. Nunn Blast New SEC Cyber Rules
September 5, 2023
“It is unfathomable that the SEC is moving forward with its public disclosure requirements, which will only increase cybersecurity risk”
WASHINGTON, D.C. — House Committee on Homeland Security Chairman Mark E. Green, MD (R-TN) and Subcommittee on Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Protection Chairman Andrew Garbarino (R-NY) were joined by Congressman Zach Nunn (R-IA) on a letter to Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chair Gary Gensler, which sounded off on the agency’s duplicative new cyber rules that increase bureaucratic burden for public companies, risk compromising their confidentiality, and run contrary to the congressionally-mandated, bipartisan Cyber Incident Reporting for Critical Infrastructure Act of 2022 (CIRCIA). In the letter, the Members urge the SEC to work with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Cyber Incident Reporting Council and request an analysis by the SEC of how these rules will interact with CIRCIA, affect other federal cyber incident reporting requirements, and impact the SEC’s additional disclosure proposals.

New: Homeland Majority Releases Second Interim Report on How Secretary Mayorkas’ Open-Border Policies Have Empowered Cartels and Undermined National Security
September 7, 2023
“The cartels’ operations at the border and in communities across the country have meant more crime, more families ripped apart by addiction, and more vulnerable people exploited and abused.”
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, the House Committee on Homeland Security Majority, led by Chairman Mark E. Green, MD (R-TN), released its interim report on the second phase of the Committee’s comprehensive oversight investigation into the crisis at the Southwest border and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas’ dereliction of duty in handling the crisis. This report examines how cartels in Mexico have seized unprecedented control at the Southwest border to smuggle illegal aliens, criminals, suspected terrorists, and deadly fentanyl and other drugs into the United States, taking advantage of Mayorkas and President Joe Biden’s reckless open-border policies and their refusal to enforce immigration laws passed by Congress.
