FCC's Clyburn: I'm Staying Put on FCC

Commissioner Mignon Clyburn of the Federal Communications Commission appears to have put the kibosh on a rumor she was considering exiting the commission. Commissioner Clyburn's term was up at the end of June 2017. She has not been renominated, but she can continue to serve, and has. Asked about that rumor, her office cited a recent interview in which she said: "My term was up in June, and with appointments like mine, we can technically serve until this particular Congress adjourns, which is December 2018. So I’m here until or unless someone is appointed in my place – or I win the lottery, whichever comes first."
