Ossoff, Johnson make pitch for cybersecurity funding bill for HBCUs
November 23, 2021
U.S. Sen. Jon Ossoff and U.S. Rep. Hank Johnson made their pitch Monday for a bill that would fund cybersecurity job training for Georgia's historically Black colleges and universities and others across the nation.
The legislation would require 50% of all federal funding for a new cybersecurity education grant program to go to HBCUs and minority serving institutions. The remaining 50% would go to public colleges and universities who serve large populations of students receiving financial aid.
