#SubCommTech Chairman Blackburn on O’Rielly and Clyburn FCC Process Reforms

The following press release was published by the House Committee on Energy and Commerce on Feb. 7, 2017. It is reproduced in full below.

WASHINGTON, DC - Communications and Technology Subcommittee Chairman Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) today issued the following statement after Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chairman Ajit Pai announced further process reforms at the agency.

“Today’s announcement that the FCC will be implementing process reforms championed by Commissioners O’Rielly and Clyburn is a welcome sign of a return to bipartisanship at the commission. While the commissioners won’t always agree, it is heartening to see that they can find common ground on the need for reforms to the broken FCC process," said Chairman Blackburn. “I once again applaud Chairman Pai for these thoughtful actions and commend the entire commission for their decision to work together to bring transparency, accountability, and collegiality back to the FCC."
