NextGov: The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee forwarded two bills Thursday aimed at upgrading and securing federal technology.
The first bill, the 21st Century Integrated Digital Experience, or 21st Century IDEA, Act, would require federal agencies to shutter or consolidate outdated or duplicative websites and ensure they’re accessible to people with disabilities.
The bill, sponsored by Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., also requires that sites can be reached securely, presumably with HTTPS encryption.
