Congress is asking a group in the government to study and tell them if it’s a good idea to build a super-long internet cable under the ocean that goes from America to a few other countries. They want to know if it’s safe, helpful, or possible to do, and they need to use safe and reliable helpers for this project.

The bill wants the Secretary of Commerce to tell Congress if it's a good idea to put a long internet cable underwater from the U.S. to some other places like the Virgin Islands, Ghana, and Nigeria, and they want to know how much it would cost and if it's possible to do.

This bill asks a person in charge, called the Secretary of Commerce, to make a report for Congress about if it's a good idea to put a big internet cable under the ocean that connects the United States, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Ghana, and Nigeria. The report will look at how helpful this cable might be and if it can really happen, and they have one year to share what they find out.
