Lawmakers expected to reintroduce quantum initiative authorization

The National Quantum Initiative Reauthorization Act has been drafted and is expected to be introduced this week after struggling to gain traction in previous years following the original National Quantum Initiative's expiration in late 2023, two people familiar with the matter told Nextgov/FCW.
