back to the House with an amendment adopted in the Committee of the

                           Motion to Recommit

  Mrs. DINGELL. Mr. Speaker, I have a motion to recommit at the desk.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is the gentlewoman opposed to the bill?
  Mrs. DINGELL. I am opposed to it in its current form.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will report the motion to 
recommit.
  The Clerk read as follows:

       Mrs. Dingell moves to recommit the bill H.R. 2596 to the 
     Select Committee on Intelligence (Permanent Select) with 
     instructions to report the same back to the House forthwith, 
     with the following amendment:
       Page 29, after line 11, insert the following:

     SEC. 317. PROTECTING UNITED STATES PERSONS WHO TRAVEL.

       To maximize the security of United States civilian 
     aviation, the Director of National Intelligence shall 
     identify and share with all appropriate Federal departments 
     and agencies, including the Transportation Security 
     Administration--
       (1) all information on new and constantly changing threats 
     used by terrorists to evade airport screening operations; and
       (2) updated terrorist watch list information for the 
     purpose of properly vetting employees at commercial airports.

     SEC. 318. PROTECTING PRIVATE PERSONAL INFORMATION FROM CYBER 
                   ATTACKS BY CHINA, RUSSIA, AND OTHER STATE-
                   SPONSORED COMPUTER HACKERS.

       The Director of National Intelligence, in coordination with 
     the heads of each element of the intelligence community, 
     shall prioritize efforts and dedicate sufficient resources to 
     uncover and to foil attempts to steal the private personal 
     information of United States persons, including Social 
     Security numbers, dates of birth, employment information, and 
     health records, insofar as--
       (1) up to 4,000,000 records of Federal employees under the 
     control of the Office of Personnel Management were stolen;
       (2) the information of 80,000,000 Americans was compromised 
     by the attacks on Anthem Health Insurance and CareFirst 
     BlueCross BlueShield;
       (3) the health records of more than 29,000,000 Americans 
     were compromised in data breaches between 2010 and 2013; and
       (4) the personnel records of millions of Federal employees 
     were compromised by a series of recently discovered attacks 
     against the Office of Personnel Management, including records 
     related to the background investigations of current, former, 
     and prospective Federal employees.

  Mrs. DINGELL (during the reading). Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous 
consent to dispense with the reading.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentlewoman from Michigan?
  There was no objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentlewoman from Michigan is recognized 
for 5 minutes.
  Mrs. DINGELL. Mr. Speaker, this is the final amendment to the bill, 
which will not kill the bill or send it back to committee. If adopted, 
the bill will immediately proceed to final passage, as amended.
  Mr. Speaker, it is very timely that we are considering the 
intelligence authorization bill today, as there have been several 
troubling incidents in the last few weeks that require an immediate 
response by the Congress.
  I know that Members on both sides of the aisle care deeply about 
airport security and cybersecurity, and we agree that Congress must do 
everything possible to keep the American people safe.
  Last week, we learned that there were 73 people employed at airports 
across the country that should have

[[Page 9689]]

been disqualified for employment because they are on a terrorist watch 
list. The American people deserve the highest level of security at our 
airports, and, quite frankly, I believe for all of us the status quo is 
unacceptable.
  While it is easy for us to blame the TSA for this lapse in security, 
it is shocking that the TSA does not have access and that the current 
policy does not authorize them to have access to the information that 
they need so that they can keep us safe, nor do other appropriate 
agencies.
  As much as we agree that reforms are needed at TSA, we should all 
agree that they should have all the information they need to do their 
jobs. It is critical that our intelligence and security agencies are 
sharing information with each other because they have the same 
mission--keeping the American people safe.
  This motion to recommit simply states that the Director of National 
Intelligence must provide all information on new and changing terrorist 
threats and the updated terrorist watch list information to TSA and to 
anybody else in the government that needs to have it.
  In addition, to improve information sharing, I think everybody in 
this Chamber knows that we must address cybersecurity. Cyber attacks 
are becoming a routine event in the United States today, and it demands 
an immediate response and investigation. Americans deserve the peace of 
mind in knowing that their personal information is secure and not 
vulnerable to hacking by cyber criminals, yet there is a growing list 
of recent incidents that continues to put the privacy of everyday 
Americans, our constituents, at risk.
  The recent breach of over 4 million records of Federal employees at 
the Office of Personnel Management and a hack of 80 million records at 
Anthem Health Insurance and CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield are just a 
few of the prominent examples of this growing threat. And who is paying 
the price? Working families.
  For each cyber attack that you read about in the newspapers, there 
are many more that are going unreported or, worse, undetected. In fact, 
some security experts are concerned that China is now building a 
massive database with the personal information of many, many American 
citizens.
  Furthermore, American companies are increasingly becoming targets of 
cyber attacks. With a recent report estimating that this is costing our 
economy more than $445 billion, we simply cannot wait any longer to 
protect the privacy of everyday Americans from hackers and cyber 
criminals in Russia and China.
  This motion to recommit simply requires the Director of National 
Intelligence to prioritize efforts to uncover and foil attempts to 
steal the private, personal information of Americans. This is the least 
we can do to respond to the attacks on the privacy of the American 
people. Let's show the American people that Congress is listening.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The time of the gentlewoman has expired.
  Mr. NUNES. Mr. Speaker, I rise to oppose the motion.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from California is recognized 
for 5 minutes.
  Mr. NUNES. Mr. Speaker, this motion to recommit is nothing more than 
a poison pill designed to destroy the hard work that has gone into 
crafting this legislation.
  This bill already does exactly what the motion to recommit proposes. 
It helps the Federal Government, including the patriotic men and women 
of our intelligence community, address the critical national security 
issues facing this country. As anyone who worked on it in the committee 
or took the time to come down and read the annex knows, this bill 
already funds intelligence community personnel who protect our 
networks.
  While we stand here, the intelligence community is wrestling with 
some of the greatest national security threats in our country's 
history. I urge my colleagues to vote ``no'' on the motion to recommit 
and ``yes'' on final passage.
  I yield back the balance of my time.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the previous question is 
ordered on the motion to recommit.
  There was no objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion to recommit.
  The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that 
the noes appeared to have it.


                             Recorded Vote

  Mrs. DINGELL. Mr. Speaker, I demand a recorded vote.
  A recorded vote was ordered.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to clause 9 of rule XX, this 5-
minute vote on the motion to recommit will be followed by a 5-minute 
vote on the passage of the bill, if ordered.
  The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--ayes 183, 
noes 240, not voting 10, as follows:

                             [Roll No. 368]

                          personal explanation

  Ms. SEWELL of Alabama. Madam Speaker, during the votes today I was 
inescapably detained and away handling important matters related to my 
District and the State of Alabama.
  If I had been present, I would have voted: ``no'' on H. Res. 315; 
``no'' on the Schiff/Smith (WA) Amendment to H.R. 2596; ``yes'' on the 
Democratic Motion to Recommit H.R. 2596; and ``no'' on final passage of 
H.R. 2596.
