"The bill's agenda is coordinated through the National Science and Technology Council's Subcommittee on Quantum Information Science, which steers federal agencies to identify use cases for quantum information technologies as well as hurdles to development and scaling."
"The National Institute of Standards and Technology would be tasked to help set standards for new QIST technologies under the House text, including those related to the deployment of post-quantum cryptography."
"Industry's reaction primarily focuses on how the NQIA Reauthorization legislation will help quantum technology innovations make it from the lab to market."
House lawmakers introduced the National Quantum Initiative Reauthorization Act to enhance quantum information sciences and technology applications. The bill, led by Rep. Randy Weber, reinstates the National Quantum Advisory Committee and promotes partnerships. The National Institute of Standards and Technology will set standards for new technologies, including post-quantum cryptography. A markup is scheduled for April 29, while the Senate version has already passed out of committee, focusing on transitioning quantum innovations from the lab to market.
