Congress.gov lists H.R. 5780 as sponsored by Rep. Lauren Underwood, passed by the House, and received in the Senate on October 1, 2020. CRS summary: the bill required CISA to maintain a critical-infrastructure security resources clearinghouse and issue a stakeholder outreach and operational engagement strategy.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Underwood took concrete action in the same House term by sponsoring a bill requiring CISA to improve critical-infrastructure resource sharing and owner/operator engagement, but the standalone bill did not become law through its own vehicle.

The House Appropriations report directed CISA, within 90 days of enactment, to submit a report detailing mechanisms, programs, and initiatives for outreach to critical infrastructure owners and operators across all 16 sectors; it required accounting of national, regional, rural, suburban, and urban outreach, cooperation levels, recommendations, and gaps or overlap.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): A later official committee directive closely matches the reporting substance of the commitment, but it called for a one-time report rather than an annual statutory reporting requirement. No materially newer official source in the August 12-14, 2026 lookback window showed full annual-report delivery.

Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): partial. later_term A for effort

Underwood materially advanced related policy in the same federal House term by sponsoring H.R. 5780, which passed the House and would have required CISA to maintain critical-infrastructure security resources and develop stakeholder outreach and engagement strategy, but it did not become law as that vehicle. A later House Appropriations report directed CISA to provide a closely related outreach/resources report across all 16 critical infrastructure sectors, so the substance was partly achieved after the original effort. However, the delivered directive was a one-time committee reporting requirement, not an annual statutory reporting requirement, so the promise was not fully delivered.
