Consumer Technology Association Calls for Swift Confirmation of FCC Nominees

In advance of July 19's Federal Communications Commission nominations hearing in the Senate Commerce Committee, the Consumer Technology Association was calling for a swift vote for confirmation. And the nominees are: Democrat Jessica Rosenworcel for a return engagement, FCC general counsel Brendan Carr for the open Republican seat, and FCC chairman Ajit Pai—he is being renominated given that his term expired at the end of June. Currently the FCC is down to three commissioners, effectively the minimum to get anything done.
