Broadband MAP Act of 2026

This bill would require the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to start a rulemaking within 120 days after the law takes effect. The rulemaking would review and evaluate how the national broadband availability maps are updated, including the process people use to challenge what the maps show. In that review, the FCC would have to consider the equities and burdens of any proposed map changes, how changes would affect funding decisions that rely on the maps, how changes would affect internet service providers, and the FCC's ongoing mapping work.
