The House of Representatives has unanimously voted to pass a bill blocking the sale of sensitive American user data to hostile foreign countries.
The Protecting Americans’ Data from Foreign Adversaries Act was introduced by House Energy & Commerce Committee Chairwoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers, R-Wash., and Rep. Frank Pallone, D-N.J. It advanced through Rodgers’ committee earlier this month in a unanimous bipartisan 50-0 vote.
The bill passed the House on Wednesday afternoon by a vote of 414-0.
The bill is intended “to prohibit data brokers from transferring sensitive data of United States individuals to foreign adversaries, and for other purposes.”
