Ordered to be Reported (Amended) by the Yeas and Nays: 35 - 0.
Summary
The SAT Streamlining Act adds a new Section 346 that sets faster timelines for the FCC to approve satellite and earth‑station applications, especially for non‑geostationary and geostationary systems. It bars state and local governments from regulating the rates charged by licensees and tightens information‑sharing and foreign‑ownership review requirements. The changes aim to reduce regulatory delays and create uniform federal oversight of satellite communications.
