Bill overview
This bill, the Cellphone Jamming Reform Act of 2022, aims to allow state and federal correctional facilities to use jamming systems to block cell phone signals within their facilities. It specifically limits the Federal Communications Commission’s ability to prevent such use, particularly to prevent communication with contraband devices or between inmates and the outside. The bill also establishes requirements for the operation of these systems, including restrictions on location and consultation with local law enforcement.
