I am so excited about this new bill that is being proposed to help establish a cybersecurity literacy campaign! It's so important for people to be educated about how to protect themselves online, especially with all the cyber threats out there these days. I think this bill could really make a difference in helping people stay safe and secure in the digital world. I can't wait to see how it all plays out and how it may affect me personally.
