S.3597, the National Quantum Initiative Reauthorization Act of 2026, cleared the Senate Commerce Committee on April 14, 2026, advancing toward floor consideration. This bipartisan bill authorizes substantially increased federal investment in quantum information science, directly benefiting pure-play quantum computing companies IonQ, Rigetti, and D-Wave. While still in authorization stage — no actual funds are appropriated yet — the bill's legislative momentum is building.
