House Panel to Mark Up SMART IoT Act

The House Energy and Commerce Committee’s digital commerce and consumer protection subcommittee plans to mark up the SMART IoT Act (HR 6032) on Wednesday.  The bill, which was introduced by subcommittee Chairman Bob Latta (R., Ohio) and Rep. Peter Welch (D., Vt.), would direct the Commerce Department to produce a study on the state of the Internet of things (IoT) industry in the U.S. (TR Daily, May 22).  The markup is slated to begin at 11 a.m., or 15 minutes after the conclusion of the communications and technology subcommittee markup announced today (see separate note), in Room 2123 of the Rayburn House Office Building.
