BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. GUEST. Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.

Madam Speaker, I rise today in support of H.R. 4611, the DHS Software Supply Chain Risk Management Act of 2021.

As we have seen over the past year, our software supply chains are increasingly vulnerable. It is vital that the Department of Homeland Security does its part to ensure that software in use by the Department and its contractors is secure.

This legislation will help DHS better understand and track the software and systems in use by its contractors so that it can better mitigate risk within the software supply chain.

I urge Members to join me in supporting H.R. 4611, and I reserve the balance of my time.

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. GUEST. Madam Speaker, I have no further speakers, and I urge Members to support this bill. I yield back the balance of my time.
