The senior Democrat on the commission noted China’s continued leadership of global 5G standards development in urging further action.
The Federal Communications Commission unanimously adopted an order to create a fund for reimbursing smaller telecommunications operators removing any equipment from untrusted Chinese providers Huawei and ZTE in their supply chains, assuming Congress appropriates the money.
Commissioners used strong ideological rhetoric in voting to approve the order Thursday, while Democrat Jessica Rosenworcel warned the commission’s actions are being taken in the shadow of China’s role developing global standards for fifth-generation networking technology and urged a more comprehensive approach to securing U.S. telecommunications infrastructure.
