Senator Inhofe Leads Effort To Protect Americans From Possible GPS Service Damages Oklahoma Senator Jim Inhofe is spearheading an effort to protect American consumers and businesses from possible damage to Global Positioning Satellite services and satellite communications. The harm, he and others believe, will result from interference by a new 5G network approved last year by the Federal Communications Commission. Sen. Inhofe introduced bipartisan legislation Wednesday, the RETAIN GPS Act, that would hold Ligado Networks — the company whose application the FCC approved — financially responsible if their network diminishes the reliability of existing GPS services or satellite communications "In other words," said Sen. Inhofe, (R) OK, "if Ligado messes up, they have to pay for it."
