Not only Rust, but still good to know that they care about such details.
They’re gearing up for war, sadly. The majority of dangerous cyber attacks are state-sponsored right now.
Memory safe languages tend to be easier to use and to learn especially at lower skill levels with languages like Python and JavaScript. It's a nice thought, but the White House encouraging memory safety seems like a relatively insignificant push. It's the weight of legacy code and established solutions that will hold us back for a long time.
Seriously, a good policy to actually press this issue would be to offer financial incentives to modernize code bases since the cost to replace those old COBOL files is usually the key deterrent
