“BSA | The Software Alliance commends the Senate for passing the Judicial Redress Act, a bill that will improve law enforcement sharing of data between the US and EU,” said Victoria Espinel, President and CEO of BSA | The Software Alliance. “We commend Senator Orrin Hatch for his remarkable leadership. We also praise Senator John Cornyn and Senator Chris Murphy for their significant efforts in working to move this legislation forward.

“Within days of the US and EU striking the landmark EU-US Privacy Shield agreement, this is another positive step for strengthening the continued cooperation between the EU and US on data issues. Passage of the Judicial Redress Act strengthens both security and privacy while maintaining trust for valuable commerce in a global market.”
