Secure Space Act of 2025

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

14 September 2026 | Reported by committee (Commerce, Science, and Transportation, with an amendment in the nature of a substitute and an amendment to the title, S. Rept. 119-138)

What's next: Floor scheduling (leadership decides if and when it gets a vote)

Summary: 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.
