Data brokers could not sell lists of U.S. servicemembers' private information to certain foreign countries. The FTC and state attorneys general could sue brokers that break the rule.
Modern Action explains what the legislation does, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.
Protecting Military Servicemembers' Data Act of 2023 is a House bill in Congress.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects current and former U.S. servicemembers, their households, and data brokers that buy and sell personal information. Servicemembers could get more protection from having private details packaged and sold abroad. Data brokers would need to check whether their lists include servicemember data and whether a buyer is tied to a covered nation. The FTC and state attorneys general would get enforcement roles.
Why this matters: Servicemembers can face real risks if private details about their lives are sold abroad. This bill tries to close one route for that data: commercial data brokers selling servicemember lists to certain foreign countries. It could make those sales easier to punish and harder to hide. The bill's reach is limited because it does not cover every company that holds servicemember data or every foreign buyer.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
