Chairman @RepRichHudson is right: there's a case for more PNT systems.
But #subcommtech should distinguish: Enabling diverse PNT technologies is good, but that doesn't require blowing up the 900 MHz band.
Policymakers should reject $NN's spectrum-grab.
WATCH:
Chairman @RepRichHudson opens today's C&T hearing on America's positioning, navigation, and timing capabilities.
We rely on GPS every single day, from navigation to national defense, but lack a backup system in case of failure. America needs a redundant system to protect everyday life.

At #subcommtech, @RepRichHudson is right "Congress needs to reexamine what the USF supports and how it's funded."
@ITIFdc has detailed How the Universal Service Fund Can Better Serve Consumers While Spending Less: itif.org/publications/2025/0…

Great that spectrum is headlining the first #SubCommTech hearing of the new Congress!
Here's hoping productivity-focused spectrum policy will win the day.

.@DavidsonNTIA: Additional studies of lower 3 GHz band are because "we didn't want to give up on that band." Will now look at spectrum sharing and relocating federal systems
What was the DOD study doing then??? #subcommtech

At #SubCommTech rural broadband hearing @boblatta and @DorisMatsui announce they're joining @SenatorLujan and @SenJohnThune's working group on USF.
That's good: BEAD should finish rural divides, so USF's hulking High-Cost fund will be obsolete. @ITIFdc itif.org/publications/2023/0…

#SubCommTech underway with @boblatta and @DorisMatsui highlighting the need to renew @FCC auction authority and preserve #ACP.
Unfortunately, these 2 issues seem to have a lot in common: everyone agrees they're good but attempts to extend them just fizzle out.

Conservatives have been fighting for a program like ACP for a long time, and if funding lapses we are left with less efficient alternatives with no path for future voucher. The #subcommtech hearing today should dive into these issues, as well as reforms to get bipartisan support.

The fact that those 2 agree despite very different visions for spectrum overall, highlights how much this isn't a "licensees vs. all" issue.
Everyone agrees we need more commercial spectrum! Problem is, the executive branch has too much. itif.org/publications/2023/0… #subcommtech

In yesterday's @EnergyCommerce #SubCommTech markup, I spoke in support of @RepAnnieKuster and @RepAnnaEshoo's bill — the Safe Connections Act of 2022.
Enough is enough. We must work together to ensure victims of domestic violence are empowered to move on with their lives safely.
