Thank you to @DailyCaller for highlighting parents’ growing concerns about screen-based instruction in K-12 schools. Yesterday, @NTIAgov filed comments with the @FCC documenting testimony on EdTech's impact on learning & development & the role of federal E-Rate subsidies.
Exposure to pornography, stunted development and anxiety are just a few of the issues that come with the over-reliance on technology in classrooms, Assistant Commerce Secretary @ArielleRothNTIA told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
Roth revealed that more than 280 teachers, lopment experts believe that screens in classrooms harm children’s development and their mental health, according to comments she submitted to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) on Tuesday. This comes as the agency considers reforms to a $3 billion program that subsidizes internet access for schools and libraries.
Roth believes involving parents more in their education may help solve the problem.

All four spectrum bands NTIA identified toward our goal of repurposing 500 MHz for full-power commercial use are now under study—the most federal spectrum ever studied for repurposing. Follow our progress at spectrum.gov. 2/2

Great piece by @AEI’s @ShaneTews on how the Trump Administration course-corrected BEAD, saving more than $21 billion in taxpayer funds while putting the program back on track to achieve universal broadband availability.⤵️
“Directing funds toward network sustainability and operational costs, with states allocating funds from their BEAD allocation, will give local state broadband directors flexibility and discretion in post-deployment allocations to keep areas served well beyond the initial government program.
The goal now is to keep citizens connected by keeping up with technology.” New from @ShaneTews:

At @NTIAgov’s listening session, hundreds of parents, students, teachers, & experts delivered a clear message: federal policy should be grounded in evidence and give parents a greater say over how screens are used in their children’s classrooms. 📚communicationsdaily.com/article/2026/0…

NTIA was pleased to support @PDabbar on this visit and further the Trump Administration’s efforts to secure U.S. leadership in 6G.
Chargé d’Affaires Meltzer  welcomed  U.S.  Deputy Secretary Commerce Paul Dabbar to Berlin to discuss the future of communications technology in Europe.
This visit was a great opportunity to implement the 6G Call to Action through collaboration on building secure, rted 6G networks to advance our shared prosperity and security.

American leadership in 6G starts with spectrum. 🇺🇸
NTIA applauds OMB’s latest memo, which will drastically expedite the process for repurposing federal spectrum for commercial use—setting the groundwork for multiple 6G auctions in 2028 and beyond. More: ntia.gov/press-release/…

This week we were in Berlin for a series of ministry meetings and talks, primarily around next-gen telecom and 6G. 6G will be a material jump in the ecosystem vs 5G.
5G was primarily about making our existing devices faster. The 6G ecosystem will be about broad digital ail, finance, medicine & healthcare, and logistics, frontier AI models & applications, data centers and related infrastructure, AI native satellites, and the first AI native telecom operating system (such as maybe AI RAN). And it will be about new AI edge devices such as robotics, manufacturing, autonomous cars, and drones. The impact to the global economy and national security will be material.
The allied nations had material challenges on how 5G was rolled out globally a decade ago. Lack of coordination and partnership at the government-to-government as well as across companies in the 5G tech stack led to lack of scale across the allied nations, leading to major loss of economic opportunities and privacy & national security impacts.
We will not repeat these failures.
Being early for standards and tech stacks for Critical and Emerging tech, vs being late.
I was honored to be invited to give a key note at German’s 6G conference. And meet with a wide group of ministries and allied nations. Thank you to our friends in the German government.
In addition to bilateral engagement, this summer Secretary Lutnick and U.S. Department of Commerce formed the allied telecom effort, 6G Call to Action, launched by 25 allied nations in DC this summer:
ntia.gov/other-publicat…

We also announced two additional members this week, India (the world’s most populous nation) and microelectronics leader the Netherlands. Adding to many from across Asia, Latin America and elsewhere such as the UK, Japan, S Korea, Australia, Lithuania, Panama and Honduras.
Our Call to Action nations are tied together to drive standards leading to scale. The 27 countries now include the whole G-7, 56% of the global GDP, and a third of the world’s population. $65 trillion of annual global economic activity and 2.5 bn people.
American and global allied leadership at the frontier.
