Imposes strict FCC deadlines for completeness notices, public notices, and final decisions on transfer/assignment applications, with deemed-complete rules and limited extensions for security reviews.
Introduced February 26, 2026 by August Pfluger · Last progress February 26, 2026
Imposes strict, short deadlines and notice rules on the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for processing applications to transfer control of or assign communications licenses. It creates automatic "deemed complete" consequences if the FCC misses initial completeness-determination or amendment-deadline windows, sets required public-notice timing, and mandates overall statutory deadlines for final FCC decisions, with limited extensions when national-security review or formal information requests occur.
