Go Pack Go Act of 2025

This bill would let cable and satellite subscribers in 13 northwestern Wisconsin counties choose to receive TV network stations from an adjacent Wisconsin market instead of, or in addition to, their current local network stations. The covered counties are Ashland, Barron, Bayfield, Burnett, Douglas, Dunn, Florence, Iron, Pierce, Polk, Sawyer, St. Croix, and Washburn, where no in-state station of the same network serves the local market. Cable operators could carry these in-state stations without getting the station's retransmission consent. Satellite carriers would have to offer this choice only where the Federal Communications Commission finds it technically feasible. The bill also changes copyright license rules so these retransmissions are covered.
