# Cellphone Jamming Reform Act of 2025 - Summary **What the Bill Would Do** The Cellphone Jamming Reform Act of 2025 would modify federal regulations regarding the use of technology to block or interfere with cellphone signals.

This bill would reform those rules, though the specific details of what changes it proposes are not publicly available yet, as the bill hasn't been formally introduced with full text. **Who It Affects and Current Status** If passed, this bill could potentially affect prisons and detention facilities (which have sought jamming authority to prevent contraband phones), schools, businesses, and law enforcement agencies.
It would also impact cellphone service providers and the general public. As of now, the bill is in committee, meaning it's under review and hasn't advanced to a broader vote in the Senate. **Note**: Limited information is available about the specific provisions since the bill's full text hasn't been published. Interested parties should check Congress.gov for updates as the bill progresses through the legislative process.
