Episode 174 — The American Privacy Rights Act: Are we getting closer to a U.S. federal data privacy code?
When the Chairs of Senate and House committees, one a Democrat and one a Republican, agree on a comprehensive and thorough federal data privacy statute, one might guess it will be enacted - or at least move forward to votes on amendments and packaged into a final form. Proposed by House Energy & Commerce Committee Chair Cathy McMorris Rodgers and Senate Commerce Committee Chair Maria Cantwell, the APRA offers the most comprehensive bipartisan approach yet to a comprehensive national data privacy statute.
But powerful forces have postponed a mark-up of the bill. What’s blocking a deal?
Tune in to Episode 174 for an update on how GOP leaders and civil liberty and pro-privacy advocates threaten to doom this drive to create a national e-commerce code for protecting individual data privacy. Yugo Nagashima, privacy and intellectual property attorney at Frost Brown Todd LLP, and the Data Privacy Detective highlight the obstacles to congressional action.
