Lindsay Mark Lewis, Executive Director of the Progressive Policy Institute, released the following statement in response to President Biden’s historic designation of Jessica Rosenworcel to serve as the Chair of the Federal Communications Commission and his nomination of Rosenworcel to serve another term:
“The Progressive Policy Institute applauds Jessica Rosenworcel’s designation to serve as Chair of the FCC — the first woman to lead the agency. Jessica Rosenworcel is a pragmatic, common sense leader who will move the agency forward in this pivotal period of recovery from the pandemic. With her help, the FCC and the Biden Administration will ensure every American family, worker, student, and entrepreneur has the tools they need to succeed in the 21st century economy. Once confirmed, we look forward to working with the FCC under Ms. Rosenworcel’s leadership to shape radically pragmatic policies that get our communities connected.”
