3550-3700 MHz is a done deal. It has been the subject of FCC rulemaking for several years.
Based on its inclusion in the NTIA’s 2010 Plan, the 3300-3500 MHz band was listed in the ARRL National Broadband Plan Committee report in January 2012 as the
most vulnerable amateur allocation between 222 MHz and 3700 MHz. The Senate bill just provides some momentum behind studies that are already underway.

Subject: [arrl-odv:25204] Re: 3 GHz Band in Sights of Senate Bill
Hello Doug and Tom -
One real issue is that there is incumbent use on some of
the spectrum that is targeted that cannot easily be moved. Perhaps
some of the other members of the ODV can comment on the
present current uses and the impact that this proposal might
have impact to military uses.
While this Senate bill identifies a segment from 3550-3700 MHz
for re-allocation, should the bill change and possibly identify a segment
any lower than 3500 MHz then it would impact our allocation at
3300-3500 MHz. This will need to be watched closely.

The Mobile Now Act is moving through the Senate. It is similar to legislation Rubio had filed in 2014 in that it seeks to make Federal spectrum available
for next generation wireless services. While not in the initial proposed spectrum shift, the 3 GHz band is specifically targeted (see bottom of page 9) with a feasibility report on commercial access due 3 years after enactment of the Act.
