(Nicholas Ballasy) President Biden pitched his $2.25 trillion American Jobs Plan during a speech about the Colonial Pipeline hack on Thursday — but the proposal doesn’t mention cybersecurity, hacking or cyber crime.

Biden’s American Jobs Plan includes physical infrastructure investments in roads, bridges and retrofitting federal buildings as well as green energy initiatives.
Colonial Pipeline reportedly paid the cyber hackers nearly $5 million in ransom. Biden delivered an address in response to the hack.
During the speech, Biden said the Colonial Pipeline hack shows the need to “harden our infrastructure” against attacks.
“This event is providing an urgent reminder of why we need to harden our infrastructure and make it more resilient against all threats, natural and manmade,” he said.
The White House has released a fact sheet outlining Biden’s plan. It has not been drafted into legislation yet.
“Our electric grid is vulnerable to catastrophic outages,” reads the plan outline. “Too many lack access to affordable, high-speed Internet and to quality housing. President Biden’s plan increases resilience in the most essential services, including the electric grid; food systems; urban infrastructure; community health and hospitals; and our roads, rail, and other transportation assets.”

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?
The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.
