>> thank you chairman lujan for holding what i think is a very timely hearing. legislative calendar days, the sec's authority to conduct spectrum auctions expires. and yet the last time this committee held any hearings related spectrum management was july 2021 as serving as a chairman of the subcommittee. well i have been disappointed in the lack of progress on this issue, i hope moving forward we can work collaboratively. we all know that spectrum is the lifeblood of wireless communication. next generation networks require efficient and effective use of low, mid, and high bands of spectrum. in the global race, we deploy these networks and services, proper management of this limited resource has never been more important. it's particularly important for those of us and more rural parts of the country. if inadequate sea of spectrum resources makes 5g less viable, it will be the -- where it no longer makes sense to deploy next generation telecommunications services. last week, the fcc took an important step in bringing 5g services to more rural and tribal areas by

i was with lujan in the spring and is doing phenomenal.fact that he's struggling a bit with his speech, that happens after strokes. it doesn't mean his mind isn't sharp, so, yes, he has to prove that he can do it. it's a slight hurdle and i think he will be able to overcome it. jacqui: i want to play sound from fetterman talking about his health, take a listen to that. we don't have the sound, all right, we will skip over that. i will tell you what he said, you know, i hope that you never have a doctor in your life making fun of you sort of shooting back at dr. oz for bringing his health into the picture. is that -- is that fair, though? shouldn't be voters concerned with someone's health to a degree that they are about to vote into? it's a huge position to be a senator in pennsylvania. >> look, 100%. it's fair f for the question toe on the table. i think that's reasonable. he's also been great of social media and making fun of dr. oz that he's been from new jersey or i think it's more in that vein than undermining the issue. >> it was not

thank you to chairman lujan and others for holding this important hearing. i welcome our distinguished panel of witnesses -- i cannot wait to hear your testimony. this conversation is particularly timely, as the chair noted, with the expiration of the fcc statutory auction authority in less than two months. spectrum is a critical component of enabling innovation in our modern wireless economy. we have seen time and again how unleashing spectrum for commercial use generates new, cutting-edge technologies and applications for consumers. although appetite for commercial spectrum continues to grow exponentially, there is growing demand from federal agencies. auctions have proved to be a winning solution for allocating frequencies. not only do they provide a market mechanism for who should receive a license, it provides revenue for the treasury, as our distinguished chair just stated, since 1993, when $230 billion -- more than 200 billion dollars has been collected, and that reducing the federal deficit. but the fcc statutory authority to conduct auctions is set
