Congressman Blaine Luetkemeyer (MO-03) released the following statement in response to a report released by the Treasury Department yesterday:

“It is in the best interest of consumers to have a nationwide data breach standard, and Secretary Mnuchin echoed this sentiment in yesterday’s report. As we increasingly rely on online payments and other technologies to make our lives easier, it is critical to ensure consumers can trust that their sensitive information is being kept safe or that they will be alerted if it is compromised,” said Congressman Luetkemeyer. “I thank Secretary Mnuchin for his recommendations and continued cooperation as we work towards a legislative solution”
