A bill to amend the Communications Act of 1934 to extend the authority of the Federal Communications Commission to grant a license or construction permit through a system of competitive bidding.

This bill extends the Federal Communications Commission's (FCC) authority to grant spectrum licenses through competitive bidding. It updates a specific deadline in the Communications Act of 1934, changing the expiration date from March 9, 2023, to September 30, 2023. The change directly affects the FCC and entities seeking wireless spectrum licenses, allowing the agency to continue using auction processes for new licenses during this extended period. This is a procedural adjustment to maintain existing licensing mechanisms without altering the underlying rules or creating new obligations.
