Summary
This bill would require the FCC to assess how network equipment supply chain availability affected deployment of advanced telecommunications capability and to fold that assessment into universal service deployment considerations. It adds that assessment duty into the FCC's existing Section 13(b) reporting while preserving current limits on what providers must supply.
Show full summary
- The FCC would add a focused evaluation to its Section 13(b) oversight using data already available to the Commission.
- Telecom providers would not be required to provide any more information than they were required to give the day before enactment.
- Policymakers would gain supply-chain context to inform universal service deployment choices and to weigh equipment availability when identifying service gaps.
