Federal lawmakers have introduced a landmark bipartisan bill, the American Privacy Rights Act (APRA), aimed at expanding online privacy protections for Americans. Led by key figures such as Sen. Cantwell and Rep. McMorris Rodgers, the proposal seeks to establish broad rights for consumers to control how technology companies use their personal data and create a national data privacy and security standard. This initiative represents a significant breakthrough in the long-standing effort to implement national data privacy standards, marking a pivotal moment in the battle for consumer rights. The APRA would create a registry of data brokers, enable consumers to opt out of certain data collection practices, and provide mechanisms for Americans to prevent the sale of personal information or demand its deletion. The legislation has been hailed as a critical step towards making privacy a fundamental consumer right, reflecting years of negotiation to reach a consensus on data privacy in Congress.
