Action: Both the House and Senate versions of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act include provisions directing the Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Communications and Information and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to identify spectrum currently reserved for Federal use to be auctioned for non-Federal (commercial) use. The House and Senate versions differ on the specifics—and will need to be reconciled before final passage, with the House requiring that at least 600 megahertz (MHz) be reallocated while the Senate specifies that at least 300 MHz be reallocated for exclusive non-Federal use while an additional 500 MHz be identified for non-Federal or shared Federal and non-Federal use. Both versions exclude certain frequencies, which would continue to be reserved for Federal use.Trusted Insights for What's Ahead®
