Washington, DC 20515


Dear Representative Clarke:


The U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the world's largest business federation representing the interests of more than three million businesses and organizations of every size, sector, and region applauds you for introducing H.R. 4962, the "International Cybercrime Reporting and Cooperation Act."

This bill would enhance global cooperation on cyber security issues while providing the United States with new tools to protect its critical infrastructure from cyber threats. At a time when criminal enterprises are increasing their exploitation of the cyber realm to conduct nefarious acts, H.R. 4962 would establish tough new ways to prepare for and address these threats.


The Chamber thanks you for your leadership on this important issue.


Sincerely,


R. Bruce Josten
