Over the years, Congress has put forth various legislative proposals regarding data privacy. None of the past legislation received the support necessary to enable passage of a comprehensive national data privacy law. In the face of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, however, promising new privacy legislation has been introduced by Senator Roger Wicker (R-MS), chairman of the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation; Senator John Thune (R-SD), chairman of the Subcommittee on Communications, Technology, Innovation, and the Internet; Senator Jerry Moran (R-KN), chairman of the Subcommittee on Consumer Protection, Product Safety, Insurance and Data Security; and Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN).
