What’s happening with PLAN for Broadband Act?
The PLAN for Broadband Act, known as S. 323, moved out of committee on May 31, 2026, and now waits for a vote by the full Senate. The Senate must act next, but floor time is limited and leadership decides which bills receive a vote. While passing a committee is a significant step that most bills do not achieve, the scarcity of time on the Senate schedule remains the main hurdle for this effort.
