US Senator Jacky Rosen (D-NV) announces that The American Legion, Intel Corporation, ITI, CompTIA, and BSA | The Software Alliance are new endorsers of her JROTC Cyber Training Act, bipartisan legislation that would direct the Secretary of Defense to carry out a program to enhance the preparation of cadets in the Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (JROTC) for careers in computer science and cybersecurity.
“BSA commends Senators Jacky Rosen and Marsha Blackburn for their leadership in introducing the bipartisan JROTC Cyber Training Act and urges Congress to pass this legislation in the FY2020 NDAA,” said Aaron Cooper, Vice President of Global Policy, BSA The Software Alliance. “This important legislation will provide resources to train JROTC students in critical fields like cybersecurity and computer science to better address growing threats to US national security.”
