U.S. Senator Tim Kaine released the following statement on the data breach that may have exposed the personal information of approximately 4 million current and former federal employees:

"I'm deeply concerned that yet another data breach has compromised the personal information of approximately four million of our nation's public servants, including many Virginians. As cyber-attacks become increasingly common, the government must do more to protect federal employees and swiftly notify workers whose information may have been exposed. This latest breach is further proof that across-the-board sequester cuts are harming our national security at a time when we need to be investing more resources in cybersecurity."
