Bill overview
This bill, the Secure Space Act of 2023, restricts the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) from allowing certain companies to operate non-geostationary satellite systems in the United States. Specifically, it prevents the FCC from granting licenses or market access to entities that produce or provide communications equipment or services deemed to pose a national security risk, particularly those linked to China like Huawei. The goal is to limit the potential for foreign adversaries to utilize these satellite systems for communications and data transfer within the U.S., bolstering national security.
