Rep. Barton issued the following statement after reviewing the Obama Administration’s Consumer Bill of Rights Act discussion draft:
“This is a positive first step and I want to applaud the Administration for their efforts in protecting consumers. Privacy is an issue that is near and dear to me, and I consider myself a strong privacy advocate and champion of consumer protection. However, like with most first drafts, after reviewing this summary I do have questions. If the Administration is serious about trying to legislate privacy protections, I will try to work with them in a bipartisan fashion.”
