Cyber workforce legislation vote gives rise to partisan rift on House Homeland Security Committee

The article covers a partisan split over the PIVOTT Act, legislation to provide scholarships for technical and community college students who commit to two years of federal, state, local, tribal, or territorial cyber service. Supporters, led by Rep. Mark Green, say it strengthens the cyber workforce, while Democrats warn the bill is hollow or misleading given recent CISA and DHS staffing cuts, hiring freezes, and paused scholarship programs under the current administration.
