"A bill to ensure the continued free flow of commerce within the United States and
with its global trading partners through secure cyber communications, to provide
for the continued development and exploitation of the Internet and intranet
communications for such purposes, to provide for the development of a cadre
of information technology specialists to improve and maintain effective
cybersecurity defenses against disruption, and for other purposes."

"(2) shall require each Federal agency, and each operator of an information
system or network designated by the President as a critical infrastructure
information system or network, periodically to demonstrate compliance with
the standards established under this section."

Yea sure. On the surface it looks innocuous. The Devil is in the details.
Typical! Yet another bureaucracy. All they need to do is manufacture an emergency
or declare someone is a threat and the president can shut down them down.

Not to mention well over 100 million more tax money spent per year.

Read the bill. Here is a pdf of it.
