I'm trying really hard to find my "paranoia hat", and just to relieve
some boredom I read the entire bill to try to figure out where this was

"(2) may declare a cybersecurity emergency and order the limitation or

Government or United States critical infrastructure information system
or network;"

Wouldn't this mean you're allowed to set emergency ACLs only if a
cybersecurity emergency has been declared by the President?
