HR 682 Launch Communications Act will be voted on by Congress tomorrow, Tuesday, Sept 17, 2024 at 6:30pm.  It allows commercial satellite launches to use spectrum that is currently reserved for national security and it accelerates approval of applications to launch satellites.  That may also lead to more terrestrial wireless infrastructure.

Please call your federal Representative tomorrow morning and ask for a roll call vote so that it does not pass by voice vote. 

That will identify how your Representative voted.  It will be a note for follow up from your meetings with them, or to bring up in an upcoming meeting if you have not yet met with your Representative.

If there's a voice vote, we won't know who voted for it.  But if your Representative would ask for a roll call vote, then it identifies each person who voted for or against the bill.  

Let us know how you do, and if your Representative agrees to call for roll call.
