STATEMENT OF FCC CHAIRMAN MICHAEL POWELL |
|||||
I'm pleased that the Supreme Court has affirmed the Commission's implementation of the
1996 Telecom Act. This decision brings much-needed additional certainty to the legal landscape and should advance the Commission's efforts to carry out the statute's competition goals. I thank the Solicitor General for his vigorous efforts in representing the Commission before the Court.
