Among the committees was the Cyber Safety Review Board that was conducting an investigation into the hack of American telecom companies by Beijing actors dubbed "Salt Typhoon."

House Committee on Homeland Security Chairman Mark Green (R-Tenn.) told Nextgov/FCW that "President Trump's new DHS leadership should have the opportunity to decide the future of the Board. This could include appointing new members, reviewing its structure, or deciding if the Board is the best way to examine cyber intrusions."

The Department of Homeland security told members of the Cyber Safety Review Board that their membership was terminated.

DHS terminates advisory committees, including CSRB, halting investigations into Chinese cyberattacks and AI safety.
