Federal Communications Commission Chairman Tom Wheeler suggested the FCC currently has no plans to act on its own to strengthen political ad disclosure requirements. After an open meeting, Chairman Wheeler said the FCC's focus will be the many telecommunications issues currently on the FCC's plate. "Well if the Congress acts, then we will clearly follow the mandate of Congress," Chairman Wheeler said. "And maybe you noticed, we have a long list of difficult telecommunications related decisions that we are dealing with right now. And that will be our focus."
