Advocates Want Tribal Licensing Window in Future Auctions
The FCC declined to set on for its upper C-band auction next year
WASHINGTON, Aug. 27, 2026 – Advocates and tribal organizations are still pushing federal regulators to allow tribes to pursue spectrum licenses in future auctions.
In July the Federal Communications Commission declined to set a tribal licensing window for its 2027 upper C-band auction, but groups including Public Knowledge and the Omaha Tribe of Nebraska want to keep the door open for future auctions.
