Commissioner Gomez Statement on FCC Chair Departure

I want to thank Chairwoman Rosenworcel for her astute leadership on critical issues not only as the first woman ever to be confirmed by the Senate to lead the Federal Communications Commission but also as Commissioner. The list of issues is long. She focused on consumers, especially those that have been historically left behind and those that are in vulnerable situations, on economic priorities such as the space economy and our digital future, and on national security. Her impact will be felt by many. I also want to thank her for her support and friendship. Her commitment to good government and shrewd management of our agency, which is a special place, helped make my transition to Commissioner seamless.
