“On agreeing to the Latta amendment (A017) Agreed to by voice vote.”
This amendment requires the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to review its satellite rules and suggest updates to help support high-tech farming. The goal is to make sure satellite technology is working effectively for farmers who use tools like GPS-guided machinery.
