Advancing American Wi-Fi Against Foreign Adversaries Act

This bill would require the Department of Commerce, through its communications agency (NTIA), to write a plan within 180 days for how the United States will promote Wi-Fi and other unlicensed wireless technologies around the world, including at the 2027 World Radiocommunication Conference in Shanghai, China. The plan would include promoting worldwide use of the 5925 to 7125 megahertz band for Wi-Fi and unlicensed devices. It must assess and propose strategies to counter efforts by China and other adversary governments to undermine these technologies. The agency must seek public comment, post the plan online, and report to Congress on its implementation within 90 days after the 2027 conference ends.
