Requires U.S. to boost its global lead in 6G technology and counter foreign influence.
This bill would make the U.S. Ambassador for Cyberspace lead efforts to ensure America's role in future internet technology like 6G. It would also encourage projects that provide support to developing countries for building secure networks using U.S. technology. This aims to counter countries like China and Russia in setting global digital rules.
Today, the Ambassador for Cyberspace has general duties. There isn't a specific, mandated plan for U.S. leadership in 6G or detailed reports on foreign influence in digital standards. If this bill becomes law, the Ambassador would get specific jobs leading U.S. efforts at key international conferences in 2026 and 2027. The Secretary of State would also need to create a 6G strategy and report on China and Russia's influence within 90 days. Additionally, they would encourage telecommunications projects in developing countries.
