Statement of FCC Chairman William E. Kennard on 
Second Circuit Decision in FCC v. NextWave

This is a big win for American taxpayers. This decision will allow us to return to the 
business of getting valuable spectrum quickly into the hands of companies who can provide new 
wireless service to the American people.
