The group wants higher funding authorizations than the proposed fiscal year 2027 budget, continued support for quantum testbeds and technology centers, workforce development, and sustained funding for commercial quantum hardware and software. It also asked lawmakers to harmonize research security requirements and program definitions with the CHIPS and Science Act, covering quantum-classical hybrid systems. QIC members include Amazon Web Services, IBM, Quantinuum, IonQ, Microsoft, and D-Wave, among other companies. The original National Quantum Initiative Act was passed in 2018 and expired in September 2023, though select programming has continued. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
