“We applaud the Senate Commerce Committee’s approval of Commissioner Mike O’Rielly’s renomination to the FCC for a five-year term. Throughout his career, Mike has distinguished himself by advancing policies that promote competition and continued innovation in the communications marketplace while helping Americans thrive in today’s digital world. His forward-thinking leadership has aided the FCC in modernizing the media marketplace, in removing regulatory obstacles that discourage investment, and in opening up new spectrum bands for unlicensed use that can support the continued health and growth of Wi-fi and consumer wireless technologies. We urge the Senate to confirm the Commissioner for this new term.”
