NTIA Reauthorization Act of 2025

The NTIA Reauthorization Act of 2025 reauthorizes the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) through fiscal years 2025-2026 with $57 million annually. It changes the title of the Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Communications and Information to Under Secretary and establishes two new offices within NTIA: the Office of Spectrum Management and the Office of International Affairs. The bill makes technical amendments to numerous federal laws to update references from "Assistant Secretary" to "Under Secretary" and consolidates certain reporting requirements to streamline NTIA operations. This legislation directly affects the organizational structure and operational procedures of the NTIA, which coordinates telecommunications policy across the federal government and represents U.S. interests internationally on spectrum management and telecommunications policy.
