WASHINGTON, June 8, 2026 — As the 2027 World Radiocommunication Conference in Shanghai approaches, some US representatives are working to increase Wi-Fi security.

Reps. Bob Latta, R-Ohio, and Troy A. Carter, Sr., D-La., introduced the Advancing American Wi-Fi Against Foreign Adversaries Act on June 4. The bill would require the FCC, the State Department, and the National Telecommunications and Information Administration to develop a joint plan to advance American interests at the conference.
