U.S. National Security Depends on American 5G Leadership: The US and China are neck-and-neck in a global race to lead on the next generation of wireless technology.

The United States and China are neck-and-neck in a global race to lead on the next generation of wireless technology — known as 5G. The winner of this race will reap substantial economic assets and infrastructure advantages for decades to come, and will set the standards for implementing this technology worldwide. America is currently in the lead on 5G, but foreign adversaries are taking extraordinary measures to unseat us as the global leader, and the ultimate victor of this race is entirely uncertain.
