To amend the Telecommunications Act of 1996 to preserve and protect the ability of local governments to provide broadband capability and services.

Community Broadband Act of 2018 This bill amends the Telecommunications Act of 1996 to bar states from prohibiting their state government, a political subdivision, or an Indian tribe from providing (i.e., serving as a "public provider" of) high-speed broadband telecommunications capabilities or services to persons or public or private entities. A public provider that regulates competing private providers of such telecommunications services may not discriminate in favor of itself or a provider that it owns.
