Bill information
Summary
To authorize the Federal Communications Commission to process applications for spectrum licenses from applicants who were successful bidders in an auction before the authority of the Commission to conduct auctions expired on March 9, 2023.
Plain-language summary
This bill allows the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to process spectrum license applications from companies that won bids in auctions before the FCC's auction authority expired on March 9, 2023. Spectrum refers to radio frequencies used for wireless communication like 5G networks. These winning bidders cannot currently receive their licenses because the FCC lost legal power to complete the auction process. The bill restores that power for these specific applications. It is currently introduced in Congress and awaiting review.
