On the recordNovember 30, 2011
I agree wholeheartedly. The approach embodied by the memorandum of agreement--and this amendment--exemplifies the potential for DoD and DHS to leverage each other's expertise, to make efficient use of existing government resources, and to avoid unnecessary growth of government. That is the approach we must follow as we continue down the path toward comprehensive cybersecurity legislation. Mr. McCAIN. I agree, and I again thank my colleague for supporting my amendment. While at the end of the day we may not agree on all of the provisions of a bill, I look forward to working together early in the coming year to address these issues under a process that allows for full debate of the issues on which we may differ. Mr. McCAIN. Mr. President, I urge adoption of the amendment. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Is there further debate? The question is on agreeing to the amendment. The amendment (No. 1229) was agreed to. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from New Hampshire.
