Key Points

  • This bill creates a new group called the Commission on American Quantum Information Science and Technology Dominance. This 12-member team will include both members of Congress and outside experts in technology and national security.
  • The commission is tasked with figuring out how the United States can stay ahead of other countries in the race for quantum computing. This technology is expected to change everything from how we protect bank accounts to how we design new medicines.
  • The group will look for ways to train more workers, encourage private companies to invest in the technology, and make it easier for the government to buy and use new quantum tools. They will also look at how to protect American secrets from foreign competitors.
  • Within one year, the commission must provide an update on their work. A final report with specific recommendations for new laws or government actions must be delivered to the president and Congress within two years.
