United States

S. 1962

Secure Space Act of 2025

Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee · Sen. Deb Fischer (R-NE)

The bill would prevent the Federal Communications Commission from approving satellite licenses, ground station authorizations, or U.S. market access for foreign satellites if the applicant or its affiliates produce or provide communications equipment or services deemed to pose national security risks. This aims to block companies on the FCC's list of concerning foreign entities—such as certain Chinese telecommunications firms—from gaining access to U.S. satellite communications infrastructure.[AI-Generated]
