Make-or-break time for cybersecurity bill

It’s make-or-break time for cybersecurity legislation in the Senate. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) will likely move to Sen. Joe Lieberman's (I-Conn.) cybersecurity bill this week once the upper chamber finishes up votes on taxes, an aide said. That could come as early as July 25 or 26, while a procedural vote to move the bill to the floor is expected July 30. The stakes are high for industry groups and for Sen Lieberman, the bill's lead co-sponsor, who has eyed the measure as a part of his legacy before he retires at the end of this Congress. Sen Lieberman has said a cybersecurity bill would either move to the floor before the August recess or not at all, and has been working on a compromise that he hopes will attract GOP support.
