Referred to the Committee on Armed Services, and in addition to the Committees on Education and Workforce, Foreign Affairs, Science, Space, and Technology, and Energy and Commerce, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
This bill establishes an independent National Security Commission on Quantum Computing to review how the United States can advance its quantum computing capabilities to meet national security, economic, and defense needs. The 11-member commission, appointed by the Secretary of Defense and leaders from the Armed Services committees in both chambers of Congress, will examine America's competitiveness in quantum computing, workforce development, international trends, military applications, and ethical considerations related to the technology. The commission is authorized to receive up to $10 million in funding from the Department of Defense budget for fiscal year 2027 and must submit an initial report within 180 days and comprehensive annual reports thereafter. The commission will operate until October 1, 2030, at which point it automatically terminates.
