Negotiations about continuing to fund the federal government past the end of this month appear to be at a standstill.<\/li>\n<li>The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee had scheduled a markup of legislation last week introduced by Chairman Rand Paul, R-Ky., to extend the law with significant changes that drew bipartisan and industry criticism. The panel then abruptly canceled the markup.<\/li>\n<li>The top Democrat on Paul\u2019s panel, Gary Peters of Michigan, tried to get an unaltered or \u201cclean\u201d 10-year reauthorization of the expiring law <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hsgac.senate.gov\/media\/dems\/peters-urges-senate-to-quickly-extend-critical-cybersecurity-protections-that-expire-on-october-1st\/\">passed on the Senate floor<\/a> with a unanimous consent motion, but Paul objected without explanation, preventing it from advancing.<\/li>\n<li>House Homeland Security Chairman Andrew Garbarino, R-N.Y., sought earlier this month to offer his legislation to extend and alter CISA 2015 as an amendment to the House version of the annual defense policy bill, or National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), but the Rules Committee prohibited the amendment from receiving a vote. (A Senate intelligence policy bill had included a 10-year extension, but when senators folded the intelligence authorization bill into that chamber\u2019s version of the NDAA, Paul objected and got it removed.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>All of that leaves an extension of CISA 2015 without a home, and with a key senator, Paul, likely to stand in the way of swift renewal anytime soon. Under the circumstances, \u201cI bet it does\u201d expire, one industry source said of CISA 2015. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d be pleasantly surprised if it is continued given Paul\u2019s objection,\u201d the source said.<\/p>\n<p>And that could be a big problem for both lawmakers and private-sector organizations.<\/p>\n<p>While it\u2019s unclear exactly how even a temporary lapse in the law might affect cyber information sharing, some have offered <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/cisa-2015-expiration-industry-warning-threat-information-sharing\/\">dire predictions<\/a> about how bad it will be. In the legal community, \u201cif you\u2019re giving people a reason not to do something, they won\u2019t do it,\u201d said another industry source. <\/p>\n<p>If there\u2019s a big breach during a time when the law has expired, the political risks increase, because cyberattack victims are likely to blame the lapse for what happens, said the source, who has extensive cybersecurity policy experience.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-best-hopes-until-recently\">Best hopes (until recently)<\/h3>\n<p>Advocates had long <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/cisa-2015-bill-extension-2025\/\">pinned their hopes<\/a> that a temporary two-year CISA 2015 renewal would be included in the continuing resolution (CR), given the urgency to avoid a government shutdown and the fact that the law was sent to expire when the fiscal year ends gave Congress a perfect opportunity. The House GOP\u2019s inclusion of that short-term extension language in the CR \u2014 and Democrats\u2019 support for it in <a href=\"https:\/\/democrats-appropriations.house.gov\/sites\/evo-subsites\/democrats-appropriations.house.gov\/files\/evo-media-document\/fy26-democratic-continuing-resolution-section-by-section.pdf\">their own proposal<\/a> \u2014 indicated widespread support for the idea. The CR <a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/homenews\/house\/5512199-house-republicans-stopgap-spending-bill-shutdown\/\">passed 217-212<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Senate leaders have a tradition of honoring objections on policy matters from the heads of the committees with jurisdiction over those topics when they are up for consideration in other bills. But multiple observers told CyberScoop that they interpreted the inclusion of the CISA 2015 law extension in the House CR as a sign that Senate leaders were prepared to ignore objections from Paul in this case. <\/p>\n<p>Besides lawmakers and private-sector groups, the Trump administration has been pressing for renewal. Industry and Senate sources say that new National Cyber Director Sean Cairncross has been especially focused on selling lawmakers on the need for action on CISA 2015.<\/p>\n<p>But temporary renewal is now a casualty of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2025\/09\/21\/trump-schumer-government-shutdown-funding-.html\">the broader fight<\/a> over a government shutdown, with the Senate <a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Politics\/house-speaker-johnson-optimistic-vote-avert-shutdown-democrats\/story?id=125707478\">voting 44-48<\/a> against the CR.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-paul-complications\">Paul complications<\/h3>\n<p>Earlier this month, the House Homeland Security Committee <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/house-panel-approves-cyber-information-sharing-grant-legislation-as-expiration-deadlines-loom\/\">approved Garbarino\u2019s bill<\/a> to renew CISA 2015 for 10 years by a vote of 25-0. While Democrats questioned whether the legislation should\u2019ve included any changes to the law rather than a \u201cclean\u201d reauthorization, Garbarino\u2019s changes themselves garnered no significant opposition.<\/p>\n<p>That wasn\u2019t the case for the version Paul sponsored and that was scheduled for vote in his committee last week, which would have provided a two-year reauthorization. Industry groups objected to the Paul legislation striking provisions of the 2015 law that provided protections related to cyber threat data sharing with the federal government against disclosure from Freedom of Information Act requests. They opposed a section that would get rid of the law\u2019s section on federal preemption, under which the law supersedes state laws and regulations.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats also raised concerns about several key definitions in the law, including those related to the rules for how companies can use defensive measures. According to Senate aides who spoke with CyberScoop, these changes could leave small- and medium-sized businesses particularly vulnerable. Combined with the other industry objections, the aides said, Paul\u2019s bill would have functionally ended private sector information sharing with the government.<\/p>\n<p>Industry is wary of major changes to CISA 2015 in general.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cThe fact is that over the last 10 years, it\u2019s been an effective way for the private sector to share information, which is a key ingredient in improving cybersecurity, and we should just be very careful while making changes to something that is working pretty well,\u201d said Henry Young, senior director of policy for Business Software Alliance.<\/p>\n<p>A section of the legislation that Paul wrote on free speech protections also created questions. Five Senate and industry sources told CyberScoop that Paul <a href=\"https:\/\/subscriber.politicopro.com\/article\/2025\/09\/senators-clash-with-paul-over-cyber-threat-sharing-measure-00572282\">canceled the markup<\/a> because Senate Republican panel members planned amendments that would have, with somewhat different approaches, stripped Paul\u2019s changes in favor of a \u201cclean\u201d reauthorization. <\/p>\n<p>Spokespeople for senators that sources said were behind those amendments, Joni Ernst of Iowa and Bernie Moreno of Ohio, did not respond to requests for comment.<\/p>\n<p>A spokesperson for Paul disputed what the sources told CyberScoop about the reason for the cancellation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe characterization of the cancellation of the markup is false,\u201d said the spokesperson, Gabrielle Lipsky. \u201cThe Democrats, who are not negotiating in good faith, asked for more time.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Peters said in a Senate floor speech Friday that it was \u201cdisappointing\u201d that Paul canceled the markup, and that \u201cwe were blocked from even having a discussion about the policy or draft legislation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Constituents in Paul\u2019s home state have lobbied him on the importance of a \u201cclean\u201d reauthorization of CISA 2015; Paul\u2019s public remarks about extension of the law have largely focused on passing a bill that includes <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/plankey-vows-to-boot-china-from-u-s-supply-chain-advocate-for-cisa-budget\/\">additional guarantees on free speech<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe make this request respecting your determination to protect Americans\u2019 privacy and freedom of speech from censorship and intimidation by federal government employees, and we share those concerns,\u201d a number of Kentucky business groups wrote to Paul in a Sept. 17 letter advocating for a \u201cclean\u201d extension. \u201cWe would welcome the opportunity to work with you to increase privacy and censorship protections in other legislation.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Peters asked for unanimous consent Friday for the Senate to advance a 10-year reauthorization. Paul said only, \u201cI object,\u201d thus blocking the renewal effort from Peters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCongress must pass an extension of these cybersecurity protections and prevent a lapse that would completely undercut our cybersecurity defenses and expose critical sectors to preventable attacks,\u201d Peters said in a statement to CyberScoop. \u201cThese liability protections ensure trusted, rapid information sharing between the private sector and government to quickly detect, prevent, and respond to cybersecurity threats. I\u2019m continuing to work toward a bipartisan, bicameral deal that will renew these protections for the long-term, but we cannot afford to let these critical cybersecurity protections expire at the end of the month.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-other-avenues\">Other avenues<\/h3>\n<p>A common hope among advocates was that after a short-term extension became law as part of the CR, a longer-term extension would be included in the NDAA, which often passes toward the end of each calendar year or the start of the next.<\/p>\n<p>But hopes for that diminished after actions in both the House and Senate. In the Senate, the Intelligence Committee had included a 10-year renewal in its annual intelligence authorization bill. That legislation was then included in the Senate version of the NDAA, but sources on and off the Hill told CyberScoop that Paul objected to inclusion of the CISA 2015 extension, so it was removed.<\/p>\n<p>And the Rules Committee decided on Sept. 9 that Garbarino\u2019s CISA 2015 renewal amendment wasn\u2019t germane, thus preventing him from offering it during debate on the House floor about the NDAA. One day later, the House passed its version of the NDAA, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/live-updates\/2025\/09\/10\/congress\/house-republicans-pass-annual-defense-bill-ndaa-pentagon-00556470\">231-196<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The next steps for CISA 2015 reauthorization are unclear. Paul\u2019s office did not respond to a question about his future plans for renewing CISA 2015.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Options for a short-term renewal are limited for now to whatever congressional leaders do to try to revive or replace a CR, but the timeline for doing so before CISA 2015 expires is exceptionally tight. Options for a long-term renewal might include an amendments package for the Senate version of the NDAA, since the full Senate has yet to take up its bill.<\/p>\n<p>CISA 2015 \u201cmust not lapse on September 30, 2025. Allowing it to expire will create a significantly more hostile security environment for the U.S.,\u201d Matthew Eggers, vice president of cybersecurity policy in the cyber, intelligence, and security division at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, told CyberScoop in a written statement. \u201cThe Chamber advocates for a multi-year reauthorization of this vital law. Short-term extensions are counterproductive. Both the private sector and the government need certainty, including the ability to allocate resources for long-term cybersecurity planning and implementation.
