First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet) Headquarters
FirstNet is an independent authority within the U.S. Department of Commerceâs National Telecommunications and Information Administration. FirstNet is governed by a 15-member Board composed of representatives from public safety; local, state and federal government; and the wireless industry.
Signed into law on February 22, 2012, the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act created FirstNet. The law gives FirstNet the duty to ensure the building, deployment and operation of the first high-speed, nationwide
wireless broadband network dedicated to public safety entities. FirstNet will ensure the provision of a single
interoperable platform for public safety communications.
