Senator Gillibrand Reintroduces Bill to Create U.S. Data Protection Agency

U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) has reintroduced the Data Protection Act, a bill that would establish an independent Data Protection Agency in the United States. This agency would be tasked with safeguarding Americans' personal data by limiting collection, use, and sharing of data, overseeing high-risk data practices, and enforcing privacy statutes.
