Rep. Mike Gallagher 5.9 GHz Letter

U.S. Representative Mike Gallagher writes to the FCC to advocate for the opening of the 5.9 GHz spectrum band for alternative applications, such as Wi-Fi. As a member of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, Representative Gallagher understands that the setting aside of this band for vehicle safety use over the last 20 years has not resulted in a deployment of the technology at the scale originally envisioned. Reconsidering the use of this spectrum would accelerate domestic innovation in the global race to 5G.
