Bill > HR2449

This bill establishes a 6G Task Force within the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to study and evaluate the emerging sixth-generation wireless technology. The Task Force will be composed of representatives from communications industry companies, public interest organizations, academic institutions, and various levels of government, with the FCC Chair carefully selecting members who are not deemed "not trusted" (meaning they are not owned or controlled by foreign adversaries or pose a national security threat). Within one year of establishment, the Task Force must publish a comprehensive report in the Federal Register and on the FCC website, which will cover the current status of 6G technology standards, potential uses, technological limitations, and strategies for working with different levels of government to leverage the technology. The bill requires the Task Force to first publish a draft report 180 days after establishment, accept public comments, and then incorporate those comments into the final version. The goal is to provide a thorough, collaborative assessment of 6G technology's potential and challenges, helping to inform future telecommunications policy and development.
