Statement

Issues: National Security Technology and Communication Government Operations

Office of Personnel Management (OPM) Director Katherine Archuleta resigned today after a string of massive security breaches compromising personal records of millions.

Chairman McCaul: "The buck stops with the OPM Director. The new leadership now has the hard task of not only fixing the failures that allowed this to happen, but also earning back the trust of federal government employees and the American public. This massive data theft of very sensitive information underscores again the need for cybersecurity laws to be strengthened. I hope the Senate will act quickly on cybersecurity legislation that passed the House with a strong bipartisan vote two months ago."
