The Subcommittee on Communications and Technology, chaired by Rep. Greg Walden (R-OR), has scheduled a hearing for Thursday, March 26, at 10:15 a.m. in room 2322 of the Rayburn House Office Building. The hearing is entitled, “Next Steps for Spectrum Policy."
With demand for spectrum growing every day, members will discuss what the federal government is and can be doing to meet America’s spectrum needs. The subcommittee will discuss the FCC’s first-of-its-kind Incentive Auction. The auction - a result of bipartisan work on the committee - stands to free up valuable spectrum for licensed and unlicensed uses. Members will also discuss their work to increase the efficiency of federal spectrum.as they are posted.
