GOOD BILL

 

Lobby your state senator to pass LB 63, sponsored by Sen. Eliot Bostar.  His bill would prohibit NE telecommunication companies from gaining state Universal Service Fund money, if they use equipment manufactured by Huawei and ZTE, 2 Red Chinese tech companies designated by the FCC as national security threats.  The FCC banned the sale of various equipment from these 2 firms in Nov. 2022.  The companies use their equipment for espionage, and this bill would protect our national security.  The ban would take effect in 2025.
