National Quantum Initiative Reauthorization Act
The National Quantum Initiative Reauthorization Act (HR 6213) reauthorizes and expands federal efforts to advance quantum information science, engineering, and technology in the United States. It establishes new programs including National Quantum Centers, Quantum Testbeds, and a Quantum Reskilling and Workforce Coordination Hub to develop domestic talent and infrastructure. The bill creates an International Quantum Cooperation Strategy to build partnerships with allies while restricting collaboration with "foreign countries of concern" as defined in the legislation. It provides funding for research, workforce development, and commercialization of quantum technologies across government agencies, universities, and industry. The act aims to strengthen U.S. leadership in quantum technology through coordinated federal investment and international collaboration.
