If something similar had been caused by an OSS component, we would see congress discussing a ban on open software in critical infrastructure already.
No we won't. I refer to HeartBleed, Log4J, and Eternal Blue, and Solar winds. None of those affected applications have been banned and never will. Congress bans are based on political aspects not technical ones.
Huawei ban is because of the ties to China, kaspersky was banned because of Russian ties.
But... if I don't propose a ban, everyone will think I don't know what i'm doing

None of those took down half of world. "something similar" in context of cyberstrike means something like cyberstrike.
Congress bans are based on political aspects not technical ones.
You realize that any policy is political by its nature? Including any bans?
Do you remember Wanacry?
Solar winds was a pretty big deal and I would say bigger than the current thing. Although that just strengthens your argument given orion was not open source and they were hacked and the malevolent code was injected into their system essentially internally and had been tested for a bit by the hackers which if their code had been viewable might have allowed it to be caught before becoming such a big deal.
The goal of Congress in a capitalist society is to make as much money for ~~its shareholders~~ themselves as possible.
When you vote for this, you get this, plain and simple.
People are shocked, Shocked I tell you, SHOCKED to learn this... but what else would you expect?
