Congresswoman Anna Eshoo
“Striking the proper balance between the emergency authority of the executive branch and control by the legislature is a difficult challenge. This bill is an excellent effort to modernize the Communications Act for today’s internet while trying to strike that balance responsibly and thoughtfully. It deserves consideration and bipartisan support in Congress.” —Paul Rosenzweig, Senior Fellow, R St. Institute
