“By renewing the FCC’s auction authority and creating a pipeline of mid-band spectrum, the Senate is taking a strong step toward meeting consumers’ insatiable demand for mobile data. This language represents a reasonable compromise that will help avoid network congestion and maintain U.S. leadership in wireless innovation while protecting critical federal government missions.
We applaud Senate Commerce Committee Chair Ted Cruz, Majority Leader John Thune, and Sen. Marsha Blackburn for their work on this issue, and we thank President Trump for his leadership in making this a reconciliation priority.”
