Congresswoman Jacky Rosen a Member of the House Armed Services Committee, has introduced the Securing The Electric Grid to Protect Military Readiness Act of 2017. This is a bipartisan bill that would require a report from the Departments of Defense, Energy, and Homeland Security, and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence on significant security risks to the national electric grid, the potential effect of such security risks on the readiness of the United States Armed Forces, and recommendations for mitigating those threats. Rosen says we must take every step necessary to modernize our electric power grid, and protect our military assets from malicious cyber-attacks.
