Senators Reauthorize National Quantum Initiative Through 2034
A bipartisan group of senators introduced a bill on Jan. 8 to reauthorize and expand the National Quantum Initiative, extending authorization to December 2034. The National Quantum Initiative Reauthorization Act of 2026 would require a White House international cooperation strategy, create prize challenges, strengthen quantum supply chains, and authorize new NIST centers, NSF multidisciplinary centers, and NASA quantum R&D. Congressional backers say the bill sustains federal investment and accelerates applied quantum innovation and workforce development.
