Senators Introduce Companion Bill To Grant Spectrum To First Responders – HSToday
Sens. Joseph Lieberman (I-Conn.) and John McCain (R-Ariz.) introduced legislation last week that would dedicate a block of radio spectrum to first responders, following up on a White House promise to support granting the spectrum directly to public safety agencies rather than auctioning it to commercial companies.
The Senate Broadband for First Responders Act also follows similar legislation (HR 607) introduced in the House in February by Reps. Peter King (R-NY) and Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.).
