FREEDOM Act

Sponsored By: Senator Jacky Rosen

In Committee

Summary

Would assess whether new telecom technologies can expand and protect Iranians' access to the global internet. The bill would require the Secretary of State, working with the Federal Communications Commission and the Department of the Treasury, to deliver a report within 120 days that updates the FY2025 National Defense Authorization Act strategy on direct-to-cell wireless, low-Earth-orbit (LEO) satellites, drone platforms, jamming countermeasures, and commercial off-the-shelf tools.

Show full summary
  • Iranian citizens and civil society: The report would analyze whether direct-to-cell wireless, LEO satellites, drone-based platforms, and off-the-shelf technologies can provide reliable internet when the Government of Iran cuts service and how to shield user data and safety.
  • U.S. agencies and telecom stakeholders: It would require technical, regulatory, and security assessments and a survey of terrestrial and non-terrestrial providers active in Iran, including whether providers are state-owned or have foreign investment.
  • Policymakers and the NDAA section 5124 grant program: The report would assess if readily available commercial technologies should be eligible for the FY2025 grant program and recommend improvements to resist jamming.
  • Classified annex for sensitive findings: The main report must be unclassified but may include a classified annex with detailed LEO system effectiveness, per-user cost estimates, jamming resistance, and mitigation recommendations.
